When you guys went to black rock, I was hoping to see my brother's spot "ernz spot". He passed away in 2014 but we went back and immortalized his spot, so to speak, even had the land owner approve of it . It has been a while since I've been there so I don't know if its still there but it's cool you guys checked out black rock. Our family home isn't far from there.. again, need to go back...haha thank you for showing everyone how beautiful home can be.

Black Rock is near the Raro Sunset in Arorangi. I saw the biggest crab click clacking it's way across the Rock. Also great for plane arrivals. Not so good if you are sleeping when they take off. A beautiful place. MURI lagoon. Special.

In my city here in Australia we have lots of Islands too, but they’re just not as peaceful! Loads of concrete and sound of traffic. They just don’t design traffic islands like they used to.

We remember our confusion from the gate attendants as we were flying from the North Island to the South Island when were were told if we boarded an earlier flight that we might not be able to have a male ? it turns out the NA pronounciation of meal, i.e. something you eat sounds like MALE to American ears. As it turns out, we did get a rather nice meal on that flight. Later we were entertained with music of American Western R & B at a restaurant in the mountains of the South Island. Blue Grass from the U.S.A. sounds different to our ears than the NZ performers with heartfelt singing in their accents. We still enjoyed our dinner and entertainment that night. Love your adventures, always cool no matter what the colloquialisms of the languages love you guys, Loni & Al ❤❗

Are those prices normal in NZ ? Looks pretty expensive for foreigners. 18 dollars for a street food meal which is 10 euros is expensive.

@DanegerAndStacey

2 жыл бұрын

In all honesty, prices in New Zealand are outrageous at the moment so when you consider things have to be imported to the island, it's no surprise it might seem pricey to foreigners.
