First impressions

Well, here we go! 

I'm slowly getting used to the Kiwi lifestyle and enjoy this magnificent country whenever i can!

Most impressive scenery everywhere you look and

amazingly friendly people is what makes New Zealand such a marvelous place.

Enjoy another set of rare breeds, independent republics and a glimpse on what they call a Highway down here!

Mount Taranaki, without clouds at last

Ziggy the pet emu, just about the coolest animal on Avonstour! :D

The Republic of Whangamomona, declared independence in 1989!

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
You playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you.
We are all meant to shine as children do.
It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others the permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our fears, our presence automatically liberates others."

So that is called public state highway...

Guineafowl, supposedly the best poultry in the world!

And yes, I happen to buy another car, a 1990 Nissan Sunny Super Saloon, small, ugly and slow, but still a fantastic ride!
