The place where the Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840, which guarantees the rights of Maori and non-Maori citizens in New Zealand. We went to Treaty Grounds, where you can get more information about Maori's culture, learn some Maori words and saw the place, where the Treaty was signed as well as the original residency and learn a bit more about history here.

It may sounds like a good idea to crisscross the country as many times as possible. And we thought the same and decided to do the Arthur's Pass to prove that there are still sandflies on West Coast.

Sometimes you just cannot believe in what you see. I had the same feeling when we arrived into Dunedin, quickly checked local information centre and returned back to our car. Some homeless guy came to us and we had the feeling "he wants some money".

Time to move from Queenstown - next destination Milford Sound. But before that we had time to do another river - the Citroen rapid on Kawarau river. Went there with our friends who do it almost every day and it was pretty good, even there is really just one short rapid. Anyway, it was perfect exercise for our hangover :-)

Get out early again, but weren't able to compete with Katka and Misa (the two Czech's chicks from yesterday) who hit the road before us (didn't matter they wake up at the same time). Wanaka, our next stop wasn't far enough and just at the beginning of this small village we spotted the Puzzling World.

We were leaving Fox village pretty early, at least in our eyes. Heading directly to Jackson Bay, which is the most southern settlement on West Coast. There is a nice walk around and Ocean Beach near by so we took a quick stroll there to see it.
