Doubtful Sound and Manapouri Trip

Doubtful Sound and Manapouri Power Station Trip:

This was a GREAT trip! I had never been in these 2 areas of NZ before and this was excellent.
Scenery and local knowledge by boat staff on the MV FiorlandII was really interesting.

The Power Station was also very interesting and hi to all the staff underground and above ground who keep things working for us.

Boat staff double as bus driver/tour guides also which was kool.

The second boat trip was also kool, Scenery was WICKED!
Hi to all the helpful, friendly knowledgeable staff aboard the ( apologies here as I seem to have forgotten the name of this boat. but will add it in when I find it) they know who they are.

My highlight of this part of trip was kool ride out to the seal colony and being SO close to them and seeing the dolphins and all the fiords.
Peguins VERY elusive lasses and fellows I mite add. Be quick to catch photos of these.

This trip I highly recommend to all visitors to this area.

You have to express more your opinion to attract more readers, because just a video or plain text without any personal approach is not that valuable. But it is just form my point of view

Hi Anonymous number 1,
Sorry for MEGA late reply.
Does It show that I too aren't really up with some things to do with my own blog, but now I have an NZ contact number for Google (YAY!) I will endeavour to post more on my blog in future.
Yes I have been a bit SLACK haha of late but will endeavour to get some help in NZ to further enhance and add to my blog.
This reply goes out to all who read and find my blog interesting.
Thanks goes to all out there for reading it.
I try and show different aspects of NZ life in all areas. Yes if you note these comments indeed are MY OWN personal thoughts on a different and wide range of topics.
Keep safe and have Fun in all that you do.

Hi to Anonymous who posted Febuary 20th,
These definately are MY OWN thoughts and comments, no one else writes my blog but me, just wondering why you thought I wasnt writing MY OWN blog?
Most people I think can see it has MY OWN personal touches haha.
And it is always written in the "first person" context I would have thought.
Im no writer, and most can see this, I just write from the heart and from myelf and my own thoughts and opinions on things.
Just thought I would reply to your post.
Abbey :)
