Arrived in Wanaka - wow, what a week!

Sorry for things being quiet on the blog of late. NZ is lacking Wifi hotspots that are Linux friendly (after two weeks, this is my only complaint!!!) so logging on has been onerous. Whilst I'm having a moan, wifi is charged by the hour in most places, not by MB - slow connection speeds and hourly rates sounds like a conspiracy to me!

Anyhow, arrived in Wanaka and it is as serene and beautiful as Katie described it! We travelled here from Christchurch in a Nissan Tilda, automatic transmission (would welcome any comments on this particular jalopy). Haven't driven an automatic for years, but it was fun - once I'd figured out how to get the key out of the ignition!!!!

The blog will be playing catch-up now as I'll be posting stuff retrospectively - Below is a snap of the Devil's Bath at Wia-o-tapu thermal park near Rotarua.
