It’s been an exciting fun-filled couple of weeks since the season in Whistler finished up. Kenrae and I enjoyed a week in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico; Family time in Christchurch followed by returning to Wanaka friends, just in time to see the Black Seeds perform.
I couldn’t think of a better way to experience New Zealand after returning home from my travels and the proof is below, however as i’m sure many of you know – the photos never do it justice. It was only meant to be a few days on the West Coast with Colin and Warrick however it turned into a week of waves, kayaking, hunting and fishing.
Due to a storm passing over the South Island followed closely by a King tidal system swamping New Zealand’s beaches, our plane was unable to land safely and pick us up. Oh well. I could think of worse places to be stranded! We had enough food and plenty of activities to keep ourselves occupied which made for an amazing week.
A video of the trip, including surfing footage will be uploaded to my Vimeo soon.
