I stopped off at Benmore hydro dam enroute to visiting Melissa in Oamaru.
Rafting down the Hawea river
Melissa, myself and Ashley went rafting down the Hawea river on an airbed. Lots of fun had by all as we negotiated the mighty rapids of the Hawea.
The song “Rafting on the Interislander” is now permanently etched in my mind 🙂
Mount Cook
I had a few hours spare before meeting up with Melissa in Oamaru, so headed north to Mount Cook for the afternoon. Unfortunately the weather started to pack in badly as I arrived.
Penguins in Oamaru
Melissa and I went to see some Baby Blue penguins at the Oamaru colony. Unfortunately it was nearly impossible to get a good photo due to the crappy lighting but below is the best I managed.
In the absence of good photos, we drew some penguins instead 🙂
Southern Alps from the sky
I had a spectacular view of the New Zealand Southern Alps whilst flying towards Christchurch.
WordCamp Norway
WordCamp Norway happened last weekend. Lots of cool people, lots of cool conversations and great to finally meet some awesome people in the real world who I’ve known in the online world for a long time.
