At 21 years old my adventures had taken me further than I thought possible, from St Kilda to Samoa, Stockholm to the South Pacific. All in all i have so far returned to the Pacific islands 3 times but i am now back home in the Uk as a student of Conservation and Environment BSc specializing in Remote Island Habitats Conservation
YO Felix, It all makes good reading your adventures,keep on sailing. There are 34 islands on Lake Manapouri didnot manage to count them all as the boat sailed by to the other side and on to Doubtful Sound via the Wilmot Pass. Stayed overnight on the boat caught crayfish for tea and little ginger tigers (Jock Stewarts) on a line for breakfast. Delish. It rained most of the time but adds to the atmosphere....... Plenty of dolphins leaping around too. Noticed more islands at Milford Sound on the day trip Loz and I did there. Hoping to find a way to get to Stewart Island before too long. So that is my island news for you.
The wedding day was spectacularily awesome. Sunshine and roses all day. Some of us stayed over and Loz and I the last of the party goers stayed in the hottub until 3.00 in the morn, it was overlooking the valley, we watched the full moon rise and glow through the sky to the other side of the mountain. Super awesome. Great to talk to you after all this time. XX J.
