Whitby Goth Weekend October 2009

Well it’s that time of the year again and what a wonderful coincidence that the weekend also falls on Halloween Night.

Update

Well, it’s been quite a while since my last update and I’d thought I’d post another photo for you to look at. This one is on the way to Farewell Point, the North Western Tip on the South Island. I guess it’s aptly named… Anyway, enjoy for now!!!

Did the earth move for you too?

It did for me at 9:24pm. We experienced at 6.6mag earthquake approximate 200 kilometers south east of Te Anau where I am currently staying. For me personally it was a great experience but I think some of the other guests were quite concerned. We’ve been warned of several aftershocks through the night, or… it could be a pre-cursor to a bigger one… Steve

Website

Well, after several months of no progress on my own showcase website, I’ve finally managed to create a design concept that fulfills all of my requirements.

When will it be ready… Well that’s another question;)

Room with a view

Well I’ve made it back alive and not frozen in ice after several hours trecking on Franz Josef glacier. As you may guess it’s a room with a view.

Enjoy.

Welcome to winter wonderland!

Having left the relatitive warmth of Kiakoura, I hopped onto the train again down to Christchurch for a quick overnight stop before boarding the Trans-Alpine train heading over Arthur’s pass and staying in the same place.

Just to cool you down a little I have this wonderful view from my new lodgings.

Looking out of the window

This is the view from my Kaikoura bedroom. As you can see I’m right on the beach front.

Kaikoura

I’ve arrived in Kaikoura about a quarter of the way down the East Coast of the South Island. Thursday will see me swimming with dolphins and Friday or Saturday on a whale watching cruise.

As usual photo’s will be appearing soon, and I’m guessing their may be just another pic of me sneak under the radar ;-

Moving On

Well having spent several relaxing days in Paraparaumu on the Kapiti coast it’s time to move on and switch islands. Tuesday will see me traveling to the South Island where I will be heading for Kaikoura.

Home of whale watching and marine life in abundance and I may even decide to take a swim with the dolphins.

Look out for more pictures coming soon.
