Ben's turned out to be a much better blogger than I... I probably will leave it up to him to let you in on what we're up to during our travels around the globe. However, I might put my two bobs worth in every so often.
OK, Sly (and others should you wish), now go 'clicky clicky'. There is also a link to our photos on Smugmug - loadsapics.
I might keep this sit for my own musings every so often.
For example... we're currently in Wanaka. Read that quickly and it sure sounds a bit rude. But this place is far from rude; its surrounds are absolutely spectacularly beautiful!!!!
Yesterday we hitched a lift to hike the Rob Roy track, with thanks to our ride, Justin (from Long Island, USA). The walk started off in a field with rugged mountains glaring down at you, then across a swing bridge for a magical rainforest and stream walk to finish overlooking a massive glacier and hanging waterfalls. Each new view around every corner walked brought another gasp as it was so beautiful.
Today Justin, Ben and I hired mountain bikes and cycled along Lake Wanaka to the mighty River Clutha. The lake and river were outstandingly clear. At some stages the water was like the surface of glass. Breathtaking.
Tell you something... I'm very happy, but a little sleepy... all this outdoors and exercise makes for lovely snoozes!
