Lisa and Derek's travels

She decides to give this tramping a try ....

You see we do actually do things together out of the water (like our gaiters?)

Lisa shows how to walk on water

honest, I didn't force herself to come along she came of her own volition. We went on a three day tramping trip around Lake Rotoiti in the north of the South Island and part of the Nelson Lakes National Park - have a look at the satelite photo

What can I say, she ended up sleeping in a picnic shelter on the Friday night, walking in the rain on Saturday (and Sunday and a bit of Monday), climbing up to Bushline hut at 1200m after 6 hours of walking. What can I say, I'm sure she'll be gagging to go on the next walk ;o)

The hut before it started raining


Whisky Falls (they found a still here a few years ago, how the hell they got the whisky out from here is a complete mystery to me)
Not a drop of whisky to be seen (hence the face)

Camera on a bad setting, but the view from the Bushline hut down to the lake.

Jaysus, the pub is how far?
