So we’re a day into a three day kayak trip around Abel Tasman National Park, in the northern South Island. Taking a lunch break and I wanted to see if I could update the blog… Seems like it works.
Anyway, we’re being eaten alive by sand flies, so if anyone can read this: please send help. Please. Send. Help. We won’t last too much longer. And we sure can’t wait to see what lurks around tomorrow night’s campsite, which tey call Mosquito Bay.
Today we went around a cool point with a bunch of sea lion colonies, and the sea lions came up and swam around the boat. Waaaay cool. This place reminds me of California’s Channel Islands, but tropical.
We’ve got some snorkeling gear in the kayak, so I’m hoping to catch some lobster for dinner. If that fails, maybe we can get back at the sand flies and eat them.
