Abel Tasman… actual paradise

Again, this one is going to be picture heavy.
Finding our “own” bay that was then invaded by others.
Scott diving for mussels and then cooking them in copious amounts of butter, garlic, and white wine. [and our cute neighbors, an elderly couple from Nelson, who had experience in the mussel industry ensuring that the mussels were safe for human consumption]
Snorkeling  for rays.
Rock climbing.
Watching the sunset.
Morning swim while everyone else was just waking up.
Moronic neighbors who fed the seagulls [numerous inappropriate ideas for retaliation if any of the seagulls defecated on our tent were discussed… ask me in person for more details!]
Kayaking with beers, an action that was fully supported by our Kiwi guide who met up with us at a pub later.
Live music… Tony Swain thank you for your bluesy, rock’n’roll goodness!

And finally, and not so great, realizing that I am allergic to sandflies when my ankles swelled up after being bitten and all my bites turning into itchy, red welts.
