Lake Kaniere

Feb 22, 2010 11:49

On Friday we (Alison, Ness, Sam, Tim and myself) did the road trip thing from Christchurch across to the West Coast to spend the weekend at Alison's family's bach at Lake Kaniere. (For the non-New Zealanders reading, bach = holiday home. I don't know if a bach has to be on a lake/beach to be a bach. This might be information a local needs to ( Read more... )

It's the brightest most gorgeous blue that water.

Well spotted ;) I was doing it over on the rock across from her. Not that this was where they filmed it, just because we're losers.

The water colour looks like it's glacier fed.

Oh my beautiful Lake, how I miss you so! So pretty, so peaceful (when it isn't full of BSWs)

I had such a fucked up dream about the Lake the other night, won't bore you too much with the details but Ali, Cath and I were swimming over to Canoe Cove when a killer whale and the Loch Ness Monster popped up and started having a fight like right next to us. The killer whale bit off the Loch Ness Monster's head and took the body down to the bottom of the lake leaving the really long neck and head which Cath then decided that it would be perfect to eat for dinner so she picked it up and carried on swimming with it.
I can't get the mental image out of my head now.

Sounds like y'all had a grand old time, omg they make the best pies at Sheffield! It is funny how sitting for hours on end can really take it out of you, like just now for instance I've been watching Green Wing all afternoon eating chocolate and I really need a nap now ^_^!

That's a disturbing and very weird dream, Jennifer o_0 (I think Nessie would taste kinda gross actually. For a start, he/she would be really old and likely quite tough by now.)

OH JEN, that is a bad dream.

Dream!Cath is a freak.

There weren't any BSWs! A couple of speed boats and skiiers. Me and Ness were noodling back from the islands (she did very well) and hit Canoe Cove about the same time as a speed boat and I was having the usual images of orange toothpicks but the boat parked and so we were safe to motor back. Also we went fishing from the canoe and Tim was sitting backward holding the rod and also paddling and it was very strange and then the wind happened and we had to HEAVE it back from half way to Hans Bag. My thumb is paddle-sore.
