Two days in New Zealand! There has been excellent hiking, camping, snorkeling and I was even visited by a hedgehog last night!
Today I went snorkeling for the first time. It was a good challenge and a lot fun. After I swallowed half a gallon of seawater I started to figure things out. Eventually I free dove down and released the anchor which was stuck between some rocks. I also ate sea urchin raw and alive right out of the water. My dinner was a crawfish the size of a lobster.
This evening I watched the sun set over the bay while the sheep, cows and birds sang their evening songs. Drifting off in thoughts on the steep grassy hillside I retired for the evening. Tomorrow brings some planning for a three day hike back to Christchurch and maybe a motorcycle ride!
