Northern North Island: Pahia & Waitangi

Thursday, March 30th, 2006

Kia Ora! (Kia Ora means pretty much anything from Hello, Welcome, Thank You…)

We’ve left the big shmokes to travel inland and get to know the rest of the country and the Maori culture.

Espanol: Kia Ora a todos (Kia Ora se utiliza como Hola!, Adios!,Bienvenido..casi para todo..!)

Ya hemos dejado a tras las dos ciudades mas grandes para conocer mejor esta tierra y la cultura maori.

Here’s Quene getting out of one of the hostel rooms we stayed at, as you can see they were a bit of a tight squeeze!

Esp: Quene saliendo de una habitacion doble del hostal, como veis somos bastante flexibles a todo.
