Queenstown, Milford Sound and around...

Starting ceremony of the Olympic Games tonight. Starts at some God forsaken hour, lika 1am here or something so probably get shacked up in a Top 10 (more like Bottom 10) Holiday Park tonight and see it in all its glory.

Otherwise, loads of photos to upload but the Mac is starting to behave like a PC and requires a few hours of patience to get it to do a task that should have 5 seconds, take less than an hour. So I'll work on that and put up a lengthy update soonish...

Kiritimati receives just one flight a week. The pacific atoll is only 138 square miles in area - but 70% of that is lagoons! It is 2,015 miles from Tarawa, capital of the Republic of Kiribati; 1,335 miles from Honolulu; 4,000 miles from Sydney, Australia, and 3,250 miles from San Francisco. It lies between longitude 157 degrees 10' west and 157 degrees 34' west and latitudes 1 degree 42' north and 2 degrees 3' north. It is 145 miles north of the equator.
