day 154: ferry to Wellington

I had to stand up quite early to catch the ferry. I only sleeped around 4-5 hours so I didn't do very much at this day instead of playing a lot guitar. 

day 153:

I did a walk today. My last walk on the south island. After that I went with Christian to some beaches and he forgot unfortunately his boots so we had to drive back to the beaches. It took us around about 5 hours xD

I hope I can visit him later back in Germany. 

day 152 : picton

On this day I was driving back to picton. I also went  to a hobbit scene spot where the draws fighting in the barrows against the orcs. I met Christian from the black forest and we spent the evening with fish and chips at the beach. 

day 151: able tasman national park

The days are very hot at the moment so I tried to start early but it never works. I drove to a waterfall in the national park and did a few walks. The national park is phenomenal. You have the feeling that you are on a small island. 

day 150: wharariki beach

We started in the day slowly and went different ways at probably 11 o'clock. I've went to the whararika beach to see the elephant rock. I also swum there with a seal. I didn't intend to do that but sometimes things happens.

After that I went to some springs which where very clear and they looked really amazing. The evening was also very cool.

day 149: beach day

The weather is the hole time very hot and good so it was the perfect day to go for a swim and spend the day on the beach to do nothing. I only talked to Elisabeth from Berlin. The evening was really funny because I was on a campground in the golden bay and I met julian and domenik from matamata again. It was so good to see those guys a second time.

day 148: motueka

This day was relaxed and I have read a lot but apparently nothing really interesting happened though.

day 147

The other guys and me wanted to go for a swim, so we went at 7 o'clock to the sea and had a great swim with perfect waves and it also wasn't too cold actually. I went after that with Jan-na from Finland to grewmouth to go a little bit shopping. She was really cool but I wanted to continue. I tried to ask a local if it could be possible to sleep on there ground but it didn't work really well so I had to go to a campground. 

day 146: hokatika

I picked today a hitch hiker up on my way to hotatika who was very pleasant. I also wanted to meet Joe which I met before in palmy. We went for a Gorge track and later in the evening for a swim. We also met some other guys in the hostel. We have seen the sunset and glowworms. 

day 145: heading back north

My plan from now on is to heading north to go back to the north island. I was driving a long way did a small track around a lake but It wasn't worth. 

day 144

I wasn't on my normal power level because of the fasting and I didn't want to do very much. I went with the car to a walking track which was very good with a beautiful view.

day 143: wanaka

The day started again very powerless,I felt worse and I didn't plan much. I went to wanaka, this is a pretty town next to a lake and between many empty mountains. I was going in the park and had read a little bit. But as I tried to stand up I had to hold on a tree, otherwise I would fallen over, because everything got black for a few seconds and that was the moment when I decided to end this fasting. And to be honest the first Appel I had eaten was incredible tasty. 

day 142

I haven't done very much on this day just being hungry and driving to another campground. I also bought me another phone. And the temperature is too hot for my condition it was around 30°.

day 141: routburn track

It was my fourth day of fasting and it wasn't easy to do the track. My main problem is the energy cause if you don't eat anything you have only a minimum of power. I needed definitively more breakes and I was slower than usual. The feeling of hunger isn't a big problem although I'm very jealous of any other people with food. 

Another problem on this day was my phone. It didn't work somehow and it is very annoying to be not able to use it.

day 140: glenorchy

Ive been to glenorchy before with Peter, but we just drove there and that's it. Fortunately I could sleeped in a caravan, because a friend of mine is working there. I only played a little bit guitar and continued to read my book.

day 139: Gertrude saddle track

I met Simon and Jonathan yesterday again and we decided to do the Gertrude saddle track. This is one of the most difficult one day trip you can do in New Zealand and it was hard indeed. But the hardest thing was to handle my energy. Normally I have heaps of energy from the food but that wasn't the case for this track so I was slower than the other two guys.

The fiordland is really amazing we had such a great view at the peak. I also met Marie Form France on the way back to the car park.
