Kiss from a Rose

Well, now that the monthly recaps are over, I can begin writing about things that are a little fresher in the memory. Today, it'll be a fairly light post writing wise, just a few pics of my closest brush with some real life, New Zealand wildlife. As always, after the jump.


As those of you who are up to date on "popular" music may be able to infer, the wildlife I am speaking about is a SEAL! More specifically, a number of seals, scattered out across a rocky beach. On a quiet Saturday afternoon, a few of us headed out to the beach at Aramoana, about 25 minutes outside of Dunedin, to have a wander about. Long story short, we saw a bunch of seals and unfortunately, none of them knew the words to Kiss from a Rose (and if you have me on Facebook, you'll know I already told that joke).

Anyway, here are some pictures. Look and be amazed...

Lion's Rock. I wanted to climb it SO DAMN BAD

Sleepy seal
This one looked rather majestic

Seals on the beach. Didn't want to get closer in case they
were hangry (hungry + angry)

Baby seal, sleeping on some cushiony rocks
That's all for now, not feeling like a pile of writing today. Check back soon, a bigger post on my first mountaineering adventure coming down the pipe.
