On day two, the clouds had lifted maybe a hundred metres or somesuch, so you could see the snow on top of one of the mountains. Here I took several more pictures so you can see that. Fenny walked down the beach. I took some pictures of her, because I want to remember her in her orange raincoat. Engrish in a country where English is the first language? Or is it just the way they spell in New Zealand? You be the judge. We found a little house-like thing that claimed to be a museum as we were wandering around Kaikoura. Our hosts said that the people that made this 'museum' also made the furniture that littered the beaches nearby. Glimpses of Kaikoura. Inside the tourist centre. Tourist centres always have these ancient thirty-year-old Maori carvings, sculptures, and artifacts. It's what makes them tourist centres. Everywhere else it's just kinda a European holiday spot. In case you're not getting the idea, when you holiday in New Zealand, don't expect a lot of rich history, Maoris blending with Europeans, and lots of art and architecture. Instead, expect wonderful scenery with a European accent. Trying to give you a nice view of the snow on the top of the mountain again. As I said, wonderful scenery. So we went back to the 'museum' that I mentioned earlier and took some pictures inside. Fenny hated it because it was cold and windy and the 'museum' didn't provide very good shelter. So we had to leave, and I had to stop taking pictures. :( |
