My Journey Up North

My Interisland Trip Part 2:


My third post in a month. I'm pretty proud of myself for that!


So, I got to wake up really early in Picton to catch the ferry to go from the South Island across the Cook Straight to the North Island.

We pulled out of Picton as the sun was coming out over the hills.

Can you ask for anything better in the morning?

Mist from the bow breaking the Straight.

I liked how the wakes formed.

This is what I looked like to others while I was taking my pictures.

West Head point.

South Island to my back and sunshine in my face. What a great morning!

Then the fog rolled in and it was really windy.

The sun peeked out a little. I liked the monochrome tones.

In Wellington, I saw the Weta Cave, a small museum with lots of Weta Studios memorabilia from the movies they've made.

Peter's Weapons from The Chronicles in Narnia. I thought it only fitting to take a picture and share on my blog.

Gollum.

Satellite view of Auckland at Te Papa.

This interactive and awesome media wall at Te Papa.

Views on the North Island. They changed about every 50 kms.

Mt Ruapehu.

New Zealand "desert"

At Lake Taupo, with Taupo in the background.

My cheap UV-glasses give me this view when I've got my shades on!

Getting ready to jump 47 meters toward the river.

Jumping.

McDonalds Vs Burger King. Who wins?

The one with the airplane!

The Craters of the Moon Walkway.

This guy was on the Motorway. Really?
