Term Rap Up

This term was completely out of control so I will only choose one topic to talk about... umm umm I don't know what to talk about! I know Kapa Haka! 

In case you do not know Kapa Haka is a form of Maori dancing which includes poi.  

This is a Poi.

This year Moana syndicate is doing a few Haka's ( war dances ), a few songs and a poi song. My favorite is the poi song because I enjoy learning the steps to the poi. The name of the poi song is Aue Rona E. 

Queen Charlotte Sound

How many of you have walked the Queen Charlotte Sound, without tourists? Well I'm guessing not many of you. 

I know I am probably going to sound like an ad but I can't really help it because the walk was soo much fun. You don't even need to carry all all your luggage! The water taxi takes the things you will not need while you are walking then the water taxi drops your stuff off at the place you are staying overnight. 

We stayed at Furneaux Lodge the first night, Ponga the second, Treetops the third and Mistletoe the last!   

The scenery was pristine, meditative and almost picture perfect.  It felt like we almost had the place to ourselves.  The restaurants were delicious the service made me feel like a duchess.
