Day56 Balclutha



Taking a day off in Balclutha. Late breakfast and enjoyed walking around.

Clutha river is the longest river in New Zealand. It’s famous for trout or salmon fishing.

And this area used to be busy during gold rush age.


Then we went for a drive.

What impressed me most is there are many kinds of natural beauty here in New Zealand.

Sea, rivers, mountains, lakes, forests, trails and caves…

The landscape which can be seen from the car is blue of the sea and the sky, white of the clouds and green of the field. Only gray of the highway looks artificial.

The population of New Zealand is just 4 million with 3 million in North Island, 1 million in South Island.

Wherever we go, we don’t see very few populated area. It’s so different from Japan.

Japan is a small country the same as New Zealand but 120 million people live in the populated area. And they take vacation almost at the same time, which cause some problems.


We human beings are also a part of the nature. We have to learn how we should coexist with the great mother nature.
