Kaka parrots are flying from tree to tree every now and then

dinner by the lakeside
this outdoor food stuff is really good when it's the only thing you have with you :)

5km to go :)

...and that's where I came from...
As mentioned before, having a nice motorbike here would be almost too perfect

on the way up to St Arnaud

Last some km to St Arnaud were as hard as the ones the day before but at least it was not as many km to do. Wind from straight ahead and a road going slightly upwards all the time...

The audiobook (Ich bin dann mal weg von Hape Kerkeling is really great btw ;) ) was finished just 5km outside of St Arnaud, so the timing couldn't have been better :)

The campsite has a lovely setting directly at the Lake Rotoiti.

Fetched some infos about the Sabine Circuit and thought about doing that within the next 5 days, but during the evening I changed my mind towards doing some little walk or biking tomorrow and then a bigger walk the next day.

The weather was just not good enough for a bigger trek and there was no point of doing something like that with bad weather and therefor no views...
