Red Rocks Coast















On my days off from wonderful Gordon's, I team up with my fellow American co-workers and head out to see the sights of New Zealand.

This week, Red Rocks Coastal Walk near Owhiro Bay outside of Wellington. Three hours of trekking along the rocky coast while swatting away the blood sucking sand flies from nibbling on my ankles.

Apparently, it is illegal to kill New Zealand sandflies within a National Park. They are indigenous species. Oops! Sorry about that . . .just my Darwinism instinct.


The best finds of the day; A clean, but abandon tub & McDonald's VIP pass. Wha??













Scariest sight of the day: A group of guys drinking beer with a semi-automatics in hand. Um . . . i started walking faster.

  1. I want to know what benefits the drive-thru VIP membership entitles one to.

  2. VIP PASS: My best guess would be; you can actually cheat in line. Aunt Girlie told actual cases where people would give their order and pass the cars in front of them to get to the window faster. Go figure.

  3. LOL - I love that the VIP pass has sparked such a conversation.

    Unfortunately it doesn't enable you to skip in line but you do get either a medium coke or small tea/coffee with any purchase. But only one per vehicle.

    Also please let me know who is commenting - helps me to cater my response :)
