We're drivig down to the Hawkes Bay (wine country) to see what's there! Never been before. I'll only be doing about 600 odd km's each way with a bit in between.

I'm hoping to maybe catch a trout or two, hit a trail or two in the forest or wherever & look for good photo oportunities along the way.

I'll take my laptop with to download pics & if time. Hopefully find an internet connection & do a quick post to let you all know where I'm at. WITH PIC's Yea, I got the message! LOL

Here's hoping the leaky exhaust lasts the trip! LOL

 

you`ll prob find alot of wine there...

 

Sooo pretty much you just came to rub it in our face that you're going on a mini vacation while the majority of the rest of us are stuck in the office/work. Thanks kiwi
Hope you have a good time though. Wine country is a great place for photo ops. I'm expecting lots of amazing pics of grapes and the kiwi Blazer

 

im off for 4 days..

 

You canucks wasted your Thanksgiving too early. Now the majority of the rest of us, (because everyone knows america counts for 3/4 of the world ) have a sweet four day.

I'm interested in the fishing kiwi! if you bag a trout, snap a shot. Do you guys have Rainbows down there? Browns? Brooks?

 

Rainbow & Brown trout are the common fresh water fish in NZ. Yeah love fishing to, never got into fresh water fishing but salt water now thats another story.
Have a good one Kiwi.

 

OoO yeah now I really hope he bags one. Fresh Rainbow is arguably the best fish around (right up there with fresh chinook). But the browns are more fun as they are better fighters and a bit on the uncommon side out here.

 

I actually can't complain. I have a 3 day weekend lol. I worked last weekend, so I get a long one this week.
