Cubefield On School Weekends

6.26 From Arthur's Pass to Haast, West Coast.


Mi son svegliato abbastanza presto. Non avevo ancora digerito il fatto di non poter navigare in internet. Vabbè, era stata solo colpa mia.
Cosa dire… Mi sono lavato al volo e sono uscito, con un pò di fretta devo dire. La cosa non mi ha aiutato più di tanto… Ho infatti grattato via il ghiaccio dal parabrezza, e sono partito…SI, IMBOCCANDO LA CORSIA DI DESTRA… Fortuna che mi trovavo in una zona sperdutissima. Ho fatto un 500 mt con un paio di curve prima di accorgermene.. ;-) E’ la prima volta che mi capita. Giuro !
Poi.. comincio a guidare in questa strada che passa tra le montagne, abbastanze innevate. Mi ritrovo una giornata bellissima.. pensate a blue sky without even a cloud. I do a lot of road, before descending from these mountains. At one point, two hitchhikers beak. I stop and load them: they go exactly where I'm going: Frank and Josep Fox Glacier. I am an American and an Englishman. L 'is American in NZ for 2 years and 2 months! He has worked in Wellington. I tell him that I was there and that I liked very much ..
I make a couple of miles and find, eg, as it were, of course, that the front windshield has a huge crack from side to side to side ... How the hell did I not notice? I think you will be very successful. Was overwhelmed with so much awe and with furious anger na. E 'bass, to' height of the windscreen .. ! I have a heck of insurance, but to be honest, I do not know how the devil works. L 'I paid extra. Actually it will not be my fault, at least not right I think. To be honest, I think quite a few points already made above, allargatosi the cold night and they later linen sun!
Oh well, amen. Now the word amen in this journey I'm dusting off the excess to
;-) On the one hand, back to serious, I think that helps a lot to go against these misfortunes, in a place like this. Explain. In 'South Island is not a living soul for KM and KM and the guide is truly an experience "internal". The very fact of having to come from somewhere else creates an inevitable little distressing experience, if nothing else traveling alone in the middle of nowhere with no phone line, and without a soul: no houses, no hominid, no nothing. For this, think about these little stupid things is really marginal compared to the rest .. and here you learn quickly traveling in this way ..
I've still got miles and are the destination of the two guys. Ah between the 'more nicer' s American, as we wanted to show these bears are very British. Plus the type is from Seattle and this has only point lead (grunge rules ..).
I stopped too 'me, with a stop for lunch, view l’ ora. Ho mangiato un piatto stranissimo. Una salsiccia fritta, infilata in un bastoncino. Servita con patate e insalata. Birretta accompagnatrice e sole di montagna. Col pile si stava che era una meraviglia !

Non mi sono fermato come gli altri al ghiacciaio: per me è “poco nuovo” essendo sempre in montagna. Ho preferito il paesaggio montano che scenderà verso il mare.
La scelta è stata ampiamente ripagata. Ho fatto un bel pò di altra strada, ma visto una vegetazione allucinante. Piccoli laghi dai colori eccezzionali. Ho fatto foto ovunque. La strada passava letteralmente in foreste, il bello è che qui le foreste hanno le palme !
Ciapa !

Così, pian piano sono arrivato a destination. An interim stage. I found a nice apartment and I share a hotel room with two Dutch (Netherlands). As usual one of them was here to work. When you ask what, obviously picking all respond (take the fruit ..), it seems the national sport. But I do not understand .. Does not make you a millionaire, you're missing visits around, and you're with people of all nations, except kiwi ...
Boh.

seems to have an internet connection. So if I were reading it is because they are connected. ;-)

like throwing them?!?! By now the 'Italy is an old memory. There's nothing here that makes me remember .. Yepp!

A virtual five, from a tropicalista convinced.
