New Zealand Adventure

We’ve been in New Zealand just a week, but we’ve already seen much of the South Island. We started outside Christchurch at Windwhistle where the wind was really whistling as we golfed along the Rakaia Gorge. 

Next south to Dunedin where we visited the lovely old railway station. Lime electric scooters are pervasive in NZ as well, here in front of First Church. 

Its spring here and the flowers are lovely, especially the rhododendrons. 

Then even further south to Invercargill, the most southern city, home of Burt Munro, famous for setting many motorcycle land speed records. The movie The World’s Fastest Indian is about him—it’s a great film. 

Our weather has not been as nice as we expected, but we’ve golfed 3 times and has two good hikes. Unfortunately, our Siberia Experience was cancelled because of weather. The cloud cover was too low to fly us in to the drop off point for the hike. But we have no real complaints after reading about the Milwaukee weather!!
