RE: East Coast of New Zealand's North Island - Actifit

in #actifit5 years ago

Howdy sir nickyhavey! wow, wonderful coastlines, cool lighthouse, gorgeous ancient trees..but no people. Do people still live there? that's my kind of place if it's that sparce! I could step outside my door and shoot in any direction!

Sort:  

It is very sparse in shoulder season Lord Janton! Just don't go between December and Feb because it is jam packed full of people. I also got up pretty early each morning to make the most of each day as it is winter here and so days are shorter.

Vintage American thing to say "shoot in any direction" lol!

lol! Is that what they call a coloqualism? that saying? I probably misspelled that word too. I love the looks of that place with no one around, suits me just fine, I think I would fit there very well until peak season. I don't like gawkers and tourists!

No I think it's an actual term they have in the tourism industry. It's "colloquialism" in Queen's English but in Redneck, that's probably how you say it lol.

Then it sounds like Shoulder Season is your kind of time to go too! I plan my trips around May/June or September to avoid the rush. I remember when I was heading back to the city I felt suffocated just for that short instant but the population of NZ is only 4.5 million or so. When you think London has nearly double that...!
