Waitangi Rugby at Stewart Island

Yesterday I arrived at Stewart Island in deep fog. As the day passed it cleared up. At 2 they had their annual rugby game here. Of course I put the zoom lens on the camera ran there :) It was the first rugby game I watched ever. Crazy! I don't understand how they walk away from all those hits. If just one of those tackles would be performed in a Swedish football game, it would make the national news headlines...

I also took a short guided walk along the coastline in amazing light in the evening. Just me and the guide. That's luxury, and I learnt a lot about the local plants and their history. It was a good day :)
