through the miracle of modern technology (and the hassle oft associated with it) some pictures of the current new zealand travels:

the beginning of a rafting endeavor

the flotilla forms up

one of the many flotilla members

and another…

a lazy seal -

near one of the many beaches

followed by a couple hundred kilometers of biking

in what looked an awful lot like montana

great travels thus far and i’ve really only been here a week. nice country that way. alas, i’m tired and lost for something intelligent to say, so i’ll try to resurrect that aspect of my mind on a later date…
