South Island Trip, Day 7:
After our first night in Te Anu, I went on a five and a half hour hike (every hike here is measured in time, not distance btw) on part of the Kepler Track with a nicely assorted group of English, Irish, German, and Swiss German. And as half of our group were German or Swiss, we kept up an incredable pace throughout the hike! (And yes, there were calls of "snell! snell!!")
Before returning back to camp for a hansome dinner of fish and chips, we completed the extra 1 km walk into town to sit down for a couple restorative beers. We also prepared to combat with the next night's addition to camp of sand flies.... the worst thing ever. I got to try on someone's mos net, and in NZ they try to scare people out of smoking by slapping REALLY graphic pictures of all different kinds of ailments you can get....but sometimes they also make a good photo op.
