South Island now ...  (North Island progress is at the bottom of site)

Sunday 20 October 2013

18.10.13 Friday
Simply glorious morning until an inadvertent wrong turning. Survived - just! Then punishing head winds. Even the Hebrides didn't prepare us for this. Both absolutely pooped. Now in Wimbledon. 45 miles and 2020 ft ascent. 
The long name translates into "The summit where Tamatea, the man with the big knees, the climber of mountains, the land swallower who travelled about, played his nose flute to his loved one" so now you know!!!
Longest place name in the world!
