Kai = food. Koura = crayfish.


After battling for hours at the depths of the ocean, a crayfish of excellent proportions and quality was wrestled from the, Kaikoura chasm. In other words the water was too cold and this chap was purchased at a local fish and chip shop.

Why Kaikoura? Good question. Lucky co-incidence saw that I along with quiz team stalwarts; Zannah, Sara and Josh, hosting the friendly all round good guy Clemens the German intern, (who will be futher refered to as Euroman he who makes our puny currency wimper and cry). Clemens works at Zannahs firm, someone at Zannahs firm likes both Zannah and Clemens, that person has a bach in South Bay Kaikoura, we stayed there on Saturday for free (almost like a free lunch) and had an all round good time.

Whales were watched, sights were seen, kayaks were kayaked and much gin was consumed (gin really is good for you, or is it the tonic, I feel a nature paper coming on).

A big thankyou to the six-day-weekend team, it was a great no hassels weekend away. Just amazing. (Left-Right, Sara, Zannah, Josh and Clemmens).

Is that enough scenery Ben? Next scenic New Zealand Destination is Queenstown. No free lunches there.
