Introduction

My friend and I went cycling on the South Island of New Zealand. On 15 November 2002 we left Amsterdam (Netherlands) by plane. After a stop in London Heathrow (UK), Los Angelos (USA) and Auckland (New Zealand), we landed in Wellington after a 22 hour flight. From Wellington we take the ferry and make a very nice crossing from the North Island to the South Island of New Zealand. We camped our first night in New Zealand in Picton.
