Thanks for visiting! On the 4th January 2011, Sue and Rick will be setting off on a grown-up gap year to circumnavigate the globe in search of fantastic food. In this blog we aim to give you a taster of our top tastebud moments... and dietary disasters. We hope this blog inspires you to explore the foods of the world too.

Catlins – the Cornwall of South Island - Sat/Sun 12th & 13th Feb

cute juvenile yellow-eyed penguin at Roaring Bay, waiting for mum to feed him!

  Catlins - Full of rugged cliffs, ancient forests, wild uninhabited beaches, yellow-eyed penguins, NZ fur seals and sea lions, not to mention countless varieties of birdlife, waterfalls, Jurassic vegetation and a petrified forest.



Pity it’s so bloomin cold!
Did no-one tell the New-Zealanders it was summer here??!!










 Still, supper of Venison Sausage & mash warmed us up







  We kept the type of sausage a secret from our field of neighbours for the night! Oops!
