Unofficial total 26,955km in 637 road days. NZ circa 1,600km in 37 road days. Many thanks to my hosts Brian and Rose for last couple of days of fun and tonight to Paul and Grace. At the South Islands and New Zealands so called ' Lands End ' in Stirling Point just beyond Bluff I touched the ocean by falling on my backside on the slippery rocks. There at the bottom of the country I did an interview for the Southland Times and another for the local CUE television station a subsidiary of SKY 110 tv which can also be seen on Freeview ch 23 Monday 5.30 and repeated at 9.pm Paul is working as an engineer on some of the Christchurch rebuild projects and regularly flies from Invercargill on standby flights that cost less than the bus fare. So as I fly from there to Tasmania I have decided to take a standby flight which he says are so frequent they are almost guaranteed to get away on Monday morning. Thanks again to all the wonderful people on both island for making New Zealand so successful and enjoyable :) New Zealand has been run
