New Zealand has the most ridiculous landscapes. In a span of 6 hours, you can drive from the Cape, with 40 mph winds overlooking blue waters and rocks, then to 90 mile beach with sand dunes 10 stories tall. Do you know how hard it is to climb a sand dune 10 stories tall? It's hard. It's a lot of sand. And getting to the top looks a lot like the landscape out of Aladdin. Just imagine that the sand dune is like the scene out of "The Mummy" and you'll get what I mean.
Drive another hour and you get to beaches the color of apricots, sparkling with white shells. Eat some hoki poki ice cream (it's like butterscotch).
Then drive 4 hours over grassy hills of sheep and cows.
Take another hour to drive over a mountain. Covered in tropical fauna. You have no time to look at fauna because you are driving the car like you drive through Mr. Toad's Wild Ride at Disneyland. It will make you sick, even if you are the one driving.
Be sure to fill up your gas tank when you see a gas station. You might not see another one for another hour and a half. A good bet is if you see a McDonald's, you will find a gas station.
Glow worm caves tomorrow. It's tubing, in a cave, with a cieling covered in fungus gnats. Did I mention I'm mildly claustrophobic and scared of the dark? Oh, and I don't like bugs much. Hahaha I'm looking forward to it. It will be fun.
I'll post pictures when I get on a computer that isn't a step faster than 90s dial-up internet.
