our journey covers Kalbarri, Carnavon, Monkey Mia smpai Exmouth...kitorg g snorkeling kt Exmouth...ade aksi2 shu diselamatkn oleh lifeguard yg 'hot' n ketidakpuasan has sbb life guard tu xselamatkn dia yg berenang lagi jauh lg dr shu...n end up terpaksa berenang sndr k bot...huhu..sian ko has...lol! one thing yg i remember is our first night kt Kalbarri, where kitorg dinner n masak kt shearing shed yg lama (still ade bau2 kambing) sbb our campsite dkt c2 n that shearing shed was our common kitchen...huhu..n malam 2 lak kitorg tgk bintang sambil bob tunjuk ajar kitorg pasal buruj n zodiak
n then at the Exmouth campsite kitorg silap sewa 4 tapak camp padahal guna 1 petak jer wat khemah semua n that campsite penuh ngan emu2...pagi2 lg emu2 tu dh dtg kaco kitorg tdo..nasib baik xruntuh khemah kitorg...huhu
we also went to Kalbarri National Park...mmg panas giler at that time..cam padang pasir jer...air kt c2 lak bnyk yg dh kering...frust gak la bila tgk 1 valley nih dh xde air...dah la panas..bnyk lalat lak tu...saba je la
n not to mention we had a bbq kt Monkey Mia...angin dia mmg kuat giler..n ade 1 time nih kt Carnavon ade satu kisah yeng ngan toilet automatic nih..hehe..xyah mention la kot crita...tp mmg kelakar giler
masa trip nih la ade bnyk perkataan2 pelik2 yg disalah sebut yg mmg akan kitorg ingat smpai bila2 bila nk kenakn org..antaranya 'habour town' (actually it's pearl habour...masa tu has tgh smgt nk teka soundtrack pearl habour tp terkeluar perkataan habour town...huhu nasib ko la has), 'tenggelam'(shu yg tgh marah anep sbb smoking dkt petrol station...takut 'tenggelam' nnt tempat tu..hehe tau la br diselamatkn dr lemas td...lol), 'flush' (fateen yg nk sebut flash camera tp tersebut 'flush'), 'floosh' (yeng yg nk ejek fateen tp dia yg tersalah sebut jugak) 'carvanon' (danone for Carnavon) 'kilbara' (atiqu for Kalbarri) n bnyk lagi....n not to mention teka teki danone yg bangang tu... 'A Walk'...huhu haaa...lupa lak nk mention..aksi2 mencemaskn fateen yg wat 'skip' masa tgh drive kol 4 pg (terdistract sbb tgh cr hset anep yg tgh bunyi alarm..dh la alarm dia bunyi lagu Disagree ...mmg scary..nasib baik kitorg xlanggar tiang tepi jalan masa tu)..n scene anep langgar kangaroo...in front of my eyes sbb my car blakang kete anep...(danone yg tgh tdo dlm kete tu hampir tergolek..nasib baik has sempat tahan kepala danone dr terhantuk seat dpn) n aksi2 kangaroo rmai2 hantuk kete anep pulak..(mesti sbb nk balas dendam..huhu)...p/s: kangaroo2 north nih mmg ganas2...suka main tepi jalan pada waktu senja n tgh malam...sejak tu kangaroo bkn lagi dianggap watak2 cute bg kitorg...huhu

then bila dh smpai YHA blk, xsedar lak yg kete izwan (skali dgn aiza, anep, fateen ngan pojoe) xde kt blakang..tgu punya lama but still diorg xsmpai lg..dh msg tp diorg mayb xde coverage..n then tiba2 anep ngan fateen smpai (diorg tumpang 1 caravan nih)..diorg ckp kete izwan tiba2 mati tgh jalan...so anep n yamud went back ngan kete mat to rescue izwan, aiza ngan pojoe (pojoe masa tu pkai shorts + slipar jepun ngan stokin roxy fateen sbb sejuk sgt) yg still stranded..5 jam lebih diorg stranded (kesian giler)..yus lak xabis2 rasa besalah sbb tukar kete ngan pojoe before diorg stranded tu... the rest g tolong shakur ngan mat tukar tayar kete anep..unfortunately bila blk je dr Millford Sound tu..we found another flat tyre kt kete anep (mat masa tu dh menyumpah2 NZ car rentals)...so 1 tyre tukar ngan spare tyre yg xleh exceed 80 km/h n the other one pinjam spare tyre kete alan...barang2 dr kete anep pulak kitorg unloaded tepi jalan skali dgn brg2 kete mat sbb kete mat guna tuk amek diorg yg tgh standed tu ngan brg2 diorg skali...(which is lepas tu kitorg sorok je kt carpark yg kosong kt celah2 kete kt YHA tu) before that, sbb sejuk sgt..kitorg masuk la YHA tuk panaskn badan..but then kena halau ngan makcik YHA tu sbb kitorg dh check out pagi td..bila dia tgk kitorg still kt car park n xblah2 lg dia pn dtg n bila dh tau kete kitorg wat hal dia pn suh masuk dlm YHA tu blk (but still dia xbg kitorg masak apa2 kt dapur dia)..so kitorg pn lepak2 la kt situ smbil makan roti sapu jem je smtara tgu dak2 stranded smpai then dlm kol 7pm lebih, diorg pn smpai..kete izwan mmg xleh nk wat apa2 dh so kitorg tgl je kt tmpat td n let the authorities uruskn...kitorg then terus bergerak g Queenstown (ngan kelajuan 60km/j- spare tyre nye pasal)..smpai2 Queenstown kol 10 lebih..the rest dok YHA LakeFront while me anep has ngan fateen dok backpackers lain yg 8km from YHA (sejuk giler sbb heater xjalan- kitorg tido around minus 7 without sleeping bags!)...very tiring ngan ngantuk...what a day!..so the drama la kn~
Drive all the way to Te Anau...singgah Haast sbb has nk bergambar dekat signboard (sbb Haast tu sounds like her name..haha- prasan!)
we lost track of Izwan's car..so kitorg singgah 1 pitstop nih utk bergambar smbil tgu dia lalu...but then he must have missed it..so we continue our journey (masa tu Izwan ingat kitorg still ahead of him padahal kitorg kt blakang..nk msg pn xde coverage)
then kitorg reunite with izwan, aiza ngan yus kt Puzzling World..but before masuk tempat tu..kitorg g hiking jap kt hill dpn Puzzling World nih sbb Redzy ckp leh nmpk view of Wanaka Lake (dia penah dtg cni b4- tp dia lupa nk mention yg hiking tu tinggi giler n penat nk mampus kn)..nasib baik view dia lawa..berbaloi gak penat2 pn...hehe..pojoe said that he could see 'Subway' from up there...
then, lepas penat hiking..kitorg g Puzzling World...amazing..very amazing...macam2 ade...nk describe pn xtau camne nk describe bout that place...ade macam2 gambar yg ade kaitan ngan ilusi optic...pastu ade 1 room nih yg senget..semua benda dlm tu senget...even bila masuk pn rasa pening...than ade 1 hall nih where there are faces of popular people such as nelson mandela n madam teressa n many more (can't recall their names) surrounding the wall n then when u enter, it seems that their eyes are watching u as u move around the hall...there's another room where when u stand at 1 side...u would look much shorter than if u stand at the other side of the room (u'll notice it when u saw it on the camera or watching it from the outside window) <--hope u all get what i'm trying to explain here..huhu
then there's a maze (ala2 harry potter nye maze but it's made of wood rather than bushes)...kitorg main 'sapa smpai all 4 of the towers yg ade at every corners tu dulu'...mmg best n pening nk cr jalan dia...(mat nye group mng that maze!)..n not to mention toilet dia..where ade painting besar outside the toilet which shows the ancient Rome toilet (gmbar org buang air rmai2...tu pn jd attraction utk kitorg bergambar..haha)
then before heading to Te Anau..kitorg singgah makan kebab (ade kedai turkish jual kebab halal kt situ)...kalah Subway kt sebelah tu..even pojoe pn xpandang Subway..haha...sejuk2 kitorg makan kt luar kedai tu...then bila dh kenyang..br kitorg continue our journey to Te Anau
ari nih kitorg g glasier hiking kt Franz Josef..lepas pack2 lunch which is pasta yg kitorg masak malam semalam...jalan kaki g register point dia (dekat je)...lepas daftar, g tukar kasut boot, amek jaket, topi n glove...
semua org pegi kecuali yamud sbb ade confusion sket dlm booking2 nih masa tu...yamud try daftar pagi tu tp xleh sbb mmg dh penuh...(sian yamud) kitorg split into 2 groups; the rest dlm 1 group kecuali me, fateen, has ngan yus in another group...(lunch2 semua dlm group satu lg so nnt lunch time kitorg akan catch up blk ngan group satu lg tu)
before smpai glasier tu..naik bas dr register point..kena jungle tracking dlm hutan...br smpai kt kaki glasier tu..before naik..instructor tu tunjuk ajar camne nk pasang spike kt boot...sbb mmg jalan2 dia slippery n dangerous! kitorgnye instructor dtg dr jepun..(has ckp dia sgt hensem!)...(tp rasanya instructor group satu lagi -Troy lg hot kot..haha- nama pn Troy kn)...instructor tu crita glasier nih berubah2 every two weeks...so each time kitorg nk lalu..instructor tu kena pajak2 blk track dia...kitorg kena naik bridge..panjat2...masuk ice cave yg sempit giler..lalu celah2 ice..seyes lawa giler view dr atas glasier tu....best!!...tp penat giler!...anep lak terpijak lopak ais..(sebelah kaki masuk lopak tu smpai peha!- cuak2!!) lunch time kitorg jumpa the other group kt atas glasier tu..diorg masa tu dh makan dh pasta (xtgu kitorg pn!-huhu) n then sambung blk our journey...kitorg nye journey 3-quarter-day..around kol 4-5 br blk register point tu blk- kitorg jmp sorg young malaysian-indian instructor nih (was born in klang..sekolah kt perlis!)- terkejut giler dia ckp melayu masa kitorg br smpai register point tu- what a small world!
pagi2 lg semua org dh siap kecuali anwar ngan shakur (hegeh br nk mandi!)...kalut g anta harizah g airport..dia nk blk auckland...(bye2 harizah!)..pastu g tukar kete mat ngan kete nissan cefiro..(bak kata anep.."macam drug dealer je..letak kunci kete dlm envelope kt dlm dashboard kete camtu jer"- giler!)...
another drama...org car rental suh hire snow chain sndr sbb dia ckp kitorg lmbat n dia dh left tmpat yg kitorg suppose to meet him up (bingungnye dealer! nak wat biznes k x??)...pastu kitorg have to spend $80 to hire it per car rather than $25 or so klu deal ngan dealer td tu (geram tul!)...so we went to Darfield tuk amek snow chain has ckp "kita nk kena amek chain saw k???<--say wat!!--chain saw?..not snow chain eh has?- haha)
drive to Franz Josef thru Arthur's Pass...before nk lalu tu..kena pasang snow chain....it was snowing at that time (yeah!!!) semua org struggle pasang snow chain (first time tu..tekun giler baca arahan)..then after 5 min driving using the snow chain...kete izwan stop tepi sbb snow chain dia giler...asyik bunyik jer..macam nk tercabut!...then he decided to patah blk k darfield nk tukar snow chain..so semua org patah blk k tmpat kitorg pasang snow chain td while tgu dia blk dr darfield...we end up enjoying the view for 1 hour...huhu..after an hour..izwan blk...dia ckp xyah pkai snow chain pn xpe..semua org pn bukak la blk snow chain yg dipasang td (penat je- what a drama!)
then kitorg pn continue our journey...view sgt lawa kt Arthur's Pass tu..cam kt banjaran Alps!...jalan sgt tricky sbb dia bukit bukau ngan very frosty...at last kitorg pn smpai YHA Franz Josef (YHA yg ke-3)....yg pekan dia ade 4 road jer..haha..kitorg enjoy makan pasta malam tu... another drama-->anep ngan fateen declare couple malam tu..huhu..anep on his knees!!!
