To "celebrate" the shortest day of the Southern Hemisphere's year, Opunake has its annual "Polar Bear Swim." Some of us at the Opunake Medical Centre and the Park family decided to join in the festivities. It was a lovely day for a dip. I am sure this was the sentiment of those on the Titanic's maiden voyage as well. Unfortunately neither were to complete their journey. Bon voyage!
Come share our year in New Zealand and return to Vermont! We spent 2011 living in Opunake, a "two pub surf town" in Taranaki. After a blessed year we return to our beloved home in the Green Mountains.

Chaddy's--"A three hour tour...a three hour tour..."
Why coupons are overrated. We get these online coupon offers and decide to go for some coupons for Chaddy's Charters, a boat tour of Port Taranaki and the sugar loaf islands.
Well the thing about coupons is that they expire...so now we come to the last day of the season, in the middle of the winter and come hell or high water...
