Kia ora, welcome! This is the place where we'll share with you some of the things we enjoy doing - four wheel driving, mountain biking, tramping ... etc. By now, we hope you would have seen the first and second of the Oscar and BAFTA winning trilogy, The Lord of the Rings. So let us take you to the "Home of the Middle Earth". Hopefully what you're about to see will entice you to come and visit us soon if you haven't been to New Zealand (Aotearoa) - land of the long white cloud. For those who have visited, it's time to come back! |

Pureora Forest Park, Central North Island (1/6/02) |
This is just one of those exciting moments on our four wheel driving trips. Note how much off the ground the rear left wheel was! The navigator (whose advice to keep well to the left and stay put was not heeded) was in the Jeep but was smart enough to climb out of the truck before the back wheel got airborne. (Note how the driver's knuckles had turned white but still hung on tightly to the steering wheel.) Have a guess at what angle the truck was. To find out the answer, go to the Centre of North Island page. For more sweaty moments (not necessarily our own), go to the Sweaty Moments page. |

a look at these:
If you haven't been back for more than three months, then you should definitely take a look at the Southern Lakes as well. Do come back often, we try to have something new posted every quarter. |
