Way to Milford Sound

The way to Milford Sound is simply fantastic. You will have this awesome view in one of the stops you will certainly make along the way...

Whangarei Falls

In New Zealand we have 2 official languages: Maori and English. The Falls you see here has a Maori name and if you want to say it right you should pronounce the 'Wh' at the begining of the name as a 'F'. Therefore we have 'Fangarei'.
About the falls now....
It's located about 2 hours driving from Auckland on your way up North. Once you are in Whangarei downtown it will take only 10 minutes to get there.

Cathedral Cove

If you ever come to the North Island of New Zealand try to make some time to visit the Coromandel Peninsula. Once you are there it's a must to pay a visit to the fantastic Cathedral Cove. You would have to leave your car at the top of the mountain and then go for a 45-minute walk down hill. It's quite easy and well marked. That's the view you are going to get once you finish your walk. It's worth it, isn't it?!

Bay of Islands

No, that's not my boat! Bay of Islands has 144 islands and this is one of them.

Niteroi

What is it? A flying sauce? :-) Nope! It's a museum called MAC (Museo de Arte Contemporanea). It's really worth visiting it. The view from inside is magic, not to mention the art work we can see in there! It's located in Niteroi - 14kms from Rio de Janeiro.

Buzios

The sky was clear so the sun set came up really bright and peaceful...

Geriba

I spent a couple of months in Brazil this last winter (winter in Brazil!?) and it was awesome!
It's not cold at all and you are still able to go to the beaches for a swim. Water temperature is not that warm but still quite nice. This beach is called Geriba and it's my favorite one in Buzios, Rio de Janeiro.

Having a siesta...

That was about 1.00pm and I couldn't resist to catch this pigeon having a nice siesta! This picture was taken in Kaikoura, South Island of New Zealand.
