Another year has passed and I am still enjoying being on the road. The beginning of the 2008 had caught me in the New Zealand, one of the countries, where the time almost begins. So I got to celebrate the New Year as one of the first people in the world. Of course forgetting about the Polynesian Islands and other four million people living in the New Zealand. With my friend Jerry, we had made it in the sight of the highest mountain of the New Zealand called Mt. Cook and for the New Year we trekked up the route called “Ball Pass Crossing”. It is passing one of the access ridges for the Mt. Cook itself in about 2.000m. For Jerry it was first time to cross 2.000m altitude mark and we both enjoyed spectacular views of the mountain with a blue sky and superb weather.All the best to all of you, who keep on reading my travel mishmash and my regards from the country of Long White Cloud and lots of good light in the New Year 2008.
