Next stop with the Green Kiwi Express: Wanaka. A beautiful but rather small laketown on New Zealand's South Island, but the one stop I had been waiting for since I arrived in Christchurch. I had a mission in Wanaka, a dream to fullfill: to fly an airplane. My first flying experience was when I was about six or seven years old. We flew to Grand Canaria, one of the spanish isles of the coast of Africa. I remember getting a Transavia colorbook complete with colouring pencils. The good old days....

On Saturday morning we left Abel Tasman National Park and by Monday night we'll be near Milford Sound - probably about 1300km's worth of driving. Given all the twisty and turny, up and down hill roads we've been on - I've been really glad to drive a nice automatic - much less stress than to be changing gear every 5 seconds.Anyway... I write this on monday morning, ove...

Unser Schlafplatz lag in einem Tal, nachdem also zu erwarten war, daß die Sonne erst etwas später zum Vorschein kommt, sind wir ein wenig später aufgestanden. Wir sind zurück nach Glenorchy gefahren, der morgentliche Bodennebel ist wie ein Schleier über den Wiesen am Talboden gelegen. Als das Tal breiter geworden ist und uns die ersten Sonnenstrahlen erreicht haben, haben wir gefrühstückt.Wir mußten zurück nach Queenstown - die meiste Zeit sind wir also am Lake Wakatipu entlanggefahr...
