Okay bat fans, I submit humbly to you the last of our blogs from New Zealand. I believe that this makes a whopping three. Considering it takes 35 minutes to download 5 photos to this stupid program, don't be thinking that we are lazy. No, this was just a real pain out here in NZ. We shall see if my mood towards blogger improves when I am at home. Now on to the good stuff.
Since last writing we have hiked below a cliff hanging glacier, walked on a glacier, met the alpine parrot called the Kea, hiked one of the best hikes in the world (according to Nat Geo), toured a brewery, and found ourselves 5 feet or less away from the worlds most endangered penguin. Yes, it was in the wild although they have set up fences to keep people a short distance from the birds. Later that night we went to a functioning blue penguin colony just up the beach and watched as 178 penguins jumped out of the ocean to go to their nests to feed the chicks. Penguins, simply stated, are awesome.
The trip has been amazing. All three of you reading this blog are welcome to see all of our pictures any time. We will get to work on an album and online album when we get home asap.
So, from New Zealand, this is Graham signing off. If you get the chance. Come here and stay as long as you can.
Exeunt

Sounds like you two trekkers are having a great honeymoon.
We've all enjoyed your blog, big thumbs up Graham.
Sorry to report, we are being hit with some really cold weather and it's projected to stay around for a couple weeks.
The girls loved the postcards, see you soon. WAZ
Cool- can't wait to chat when you get home!!! And yes, blogger is slow with pics unless you compress your pics for websites, which I don't do because then I can't get them big again to print, so I just wait patiently:)
I think there are for sure more than 3 people reading your blog :) Your trip looked amazing I am going to put NZ on my must see list for sure!!!
