Bruce Bay, the center of my tribal area.

Loved the "Hokitika at night"

great video.

Oh yes, and I remember you requesting sometime earlier good songs with

lyrics so you may eventually make a video about.

Well, I've discovered a splendid (underrated band) called Porcupine Tree

here is a song Time Flies watch?v=p8jm61vk2Ao

You should check this band out, there are tons of clips here on youtube, and the lyrics can be found easily by google-ing for them.

Cheers,

Adi

Hey Sarah, thanks a million for these treasures, your videos. I didn't watch them all yet so forgive me if you've answered these questions in the vids; how did you find the weather to be like? Was it too rainy? (did you travel during the rainy season, I believe you kiwis have about 2 seasons, at least in some parts of the islands so it's a simple guess)

Did you get enough sunny days? This seems a little similar with British Columbia and Canadian Rockies here (plus West Coast, namely the rain)

@freak8385 Yeah, that's a pretty small school. My primary school had about 30 students and I thought that was small. As for the weather, I think it's subtropical in the top of the North Island and the rest is temperate.

@thedailyenglishshow ah, yes, southern hemisphere: the norther, the hotter.
