Hi Everyone,
I'm still in NZ at the moment, all the way in the South at Dunedin (= Scottish for Edinburgh). Bit stranded here, plan was to be back in Q-town today, but no hostel availability due to Easter. Same for the supermarket. Wanted to buy breakfast, but almost everything is closed here (public holliday). And on Good friday there was even a alcohol ban for the whole day! And I tough Jesus liked wine. :P Anyway, so I'm in Dunedin. Went for the city walk yesterday because I didn't wanted to do another expensive tour. So I enjoyed myself. Met some girls from Mt Cook again as well (cajacing). What's the odds!! Since the forecast was rainy for the afternoon, I decided to go to the cinema, Clash of the Titan. It was okay, but just download it if you want to see it. :$ Mmmm what else did I do, ow yeah, went out for dinner: Pizza! And had some wine as well. :) Today the time went back one hour (so only 10 hours different with NL now) and I spent my day doing nothing (movies, Internet, diary etc).
Last week in Queenstown I did do a lot: the bungee jump, but also another LOTR tour (Isengard, Ithilien and more) where Wolverine and Narnia were included as well. :) And of course, I went out a lot and did a walk of couple of hours as well. Again, for pics: facebook.
Tomorrow back to Queenstown and from there a one day trip to Milford Sounds (some beautifull Fiord landscapes) and do my canyoning tour that got cancelled last week. Might meet Anna as well there and then I can plan when I finally go and visit her in Franz Josef. :P
That's it for now. I'm gonna make myself some lunch!
See ya! Bisbis

Anja En Willy:
Dag Ralf,
Tja, met Pasen zou het wel eens druk kunnen zijn en loop je het risico dat er wel eens iets dicht is. Maar zo te lezen red je het wel. Wat betreft het weer denk ik dat hier op dit moment hetzelfde weertype heerst. Het miezert wat en de temperatuur ligt rond de tien graden.
Goede reis verder en we lezen wel weer wat je volgende 'moves' zullen zijn. Gaan dadelijk even naar opa en oma en zullen hen bijpraten.
Knufjes!

hallo Ralf,
Zelf pas sinds voorgisteren terug van een schitterende vakantie naar Java en Bali.
Hebben o.a. een rondreis gemaakt met een groep van 12 personen. Ik zou nooit helemaal alleen op reis kunnen gaan. Moet toch echt nu en dan tegen iemand aan kunnen kleppen. Maar genoeg over mij. Heb vanavond al je berichten gelezen en ben dus weer bij. Ik moet zeggen dat de bungiejump de meeste indruk gemaakt heeft.
Ik zou ook wel eens deze ervaring willen ondergaan, maar heb toch echt de lef niet.
Geniet weer met volle teugen.
Voor nu lieve knuffels en tot hoors
