The GCW Tour, Sydney & New Zealand: The Pancake Rocks

For a variety of reasons, I'm not sure we've really seen the best New Zealand's south island has to offer. But that's not to say we haven't seen some snazzy bits, and the pancake rocks definitely qualify as snazzy bits. Aside from the very cool geological contribution of the rocks themselves, you also had some very nice pathways as well as the wekas.

Most happily, New Zealand's nasty little black fly thingies -- which look like a standard gnat but bite like a piranha -- which I'd previously been told plagued the pancake rock area were nowhere to be found.

We came across those guys later.

I could've done without funding them.
