Update from New Zealand 8

Sunday 15th December 2019

Thursday morning Jamie, Jasper and I headed down to the Mount! It was an exciting wee road trip for a few days. We needed to head to Tauranga on Friday for my medical certificate for the visa so we decided to make a few days of it and go on a short holiday with Jasper. We were just going to camp but Jo and Nico bought us an air-BnB for the night which was a bit of a treat. We arrived at the Mount around lunchtime and the weather wasn’t looking too flash so we went to a nice cafe for lunch where we had lots of laughs, playing games and daring Jasper to do things. I think he really enjoyed hanging out with his big cousins! After a deliciously big lunch, we trawled the shops a bit to find some Christmas presents, as the Mount has a heap of cool surf shops so lots of cool present ideas! The weather cleared up in the afternoon and we headed to the beach. We all promptly fell asleep on the beach and woke up hot and ready for a swim! Jasper and I spent a decent half-hour playing in the waves and watching the surfers, it was a lot of fun. We then headed to our accommodation, had another swim there, showered, grabbed some goodies from the supermarket and had a quiet night watching a movie together! 

Friday we pretty much headed straight to my doctor's appointment and then back to Pukekohe as Jamie had his Christmas work doo. Jasper went home after his week with the cousins. It was actually really lovely to be able to spend a whole week together. In the evening, Jamie wanted to head up to town to watch his friend's band play, and I wanted to go see the Christmas lights, so we did both. My friend Tom drove us up and we enjoyed some live music and drinks for a bit and then drove around Auckland admiring the Christmas lights. It was a really fun night, I haven’t been out ‘on the town’ in yonks so it was a bit of fun! 

Saturday Jamie and I headed up to town to buy some presents from Ambers mum, who is the most talented potter, we had a lot of fun choosing things to buy and supporting a local artist (who is also a good friend) is just a feel-good thing to do. When we were there, I locked Jamies car for him, the old way of pushing the lock down and shutting the door as I presumed he had the keys... unfortunately he did not and they were in the car, luckily the back door was still open so we thought it was fine, but just as we were walking away we heard the central locking work and we were like shit.. now we are stuck in town! Luckily the car is so old and we were able to break into it easily, but wow it was a bit of a freak out! Saturday arvo we all got ready for Jess’s 21st. It was a dress up party, and we had a lot of fun getting ready, finding things to dress up as. Jamie went as a pirate, it was funny because he pretty much only had to put on a bandana and some eyeliner and he already looked the part! Mum and Dad went as hippies, which was also a good costume as its stuff Jamie and I actually wear as everyday clothes! And I went as a gypsy, which was pretty much a hippie too! It was a nice night, the right number of people there, a lovely catch up and some yummy nibbles! The costumes were great as a lot of people go into it! Love Kate xxxxx

Two weeks in Kiwi Land

An adventure just after wedding is something that we all wish for. Six months into the marriage and after long debates we finally decided on New Zealand. As fate would have it, there has to be a twist, which came in the form of an unfortunate and ill timed accident. Though grateful that it was minor one, all travel plans had to be cancelled. Long story short we made it on our first anniversary, still recovering from the mishap. 

Let me get straight to the more talked and written about part. New Zealand is beautiful. I know you didn’t need me to tell you that. But no matter how much you hear and prepare, new Zealand never fails to match up to the hype. It was everything we expected it to be and even more beautiful. I bet the pictures and the video don’t do justice to the real deal. It was every bit an adventure I hoped for.  

We drove around 3000 KM in North and South island. But I confess that I didn’t have a major part to play here apart from being the navigator with the map, which by the way is not a tough job with Google maps and well marked highways with few diversions. I have to warn though, roads are narrow but considering the traffic in most areas that should not be a challenge. 

If you are anything like me and my husband, people who want to explore as any may things as possible in the limited time, then yes planning is the key. Most people would suggest at least 20 days to a month for a similar Itinerary. So I cannot say enough how important was planning. Even with this heavy must visit list, this trip still felt like a breeze because of effort that we put into planning.

In North Island one can expect to see the quintessential green hilly pastures and sheep’s, that has become the trade mark of NZ . You will get to see a different world in south Island just like the picture below. 

NOTE : How appealing or unappealing the photographs are, is a testament to our non existent photography skills and not representative of new Zealand. 

Day 1: We landed in Auckland early morning and went directly to pick up our rental car and drove straight to Waitamo. Glow worm caves were the first thing we experienced in New Zealand. It was a truly breathtaking experience . We stayed the night in Cambridge a sweet cozy town very close to hobbiton.  

Day 2: We reached Matamata where the famous Hobbiton is located . A die hard lord of the rings fan myself and having turned my husband to an enthusiast, we had a great day in Hobbitton. Later part of the day we drove to Rotura.

Day 3: Rotura is famous for its Geo thermal springs. There is a brilliant Moari centre which lends us a glimpse into their awesome culture. We visited lake taupo that day. The drive to taupo and the lake in itself has been amazing. I also tried my first ever bungee here. I suggest to experience bungee at AJ Hacket Bunjee centre in queen town in south island. From lake taupo we drove to Tongariro national park up till Chateau Tongariro Hotel just to see Mount Ngauruhoe from the distance. 

Day 4: We left for Tauranga the next day. Tauranga is a great town, a harbour side city in the Bay of Plenty region known for its historic buildings and a bridge over the harbour connects that connects Tauranga to Mount Maunganui. Hiking up here was picture perfect.  

Day 5 : We left Tauranga and started off to Auckland .Most of the second half of the day was spent in Auckland experiencing the city and museum before catching our plane to Christchurch in South Island. 

Day 6 : We reached Christchurch and stayed the night in near airport. Next day we picked up our car and drove straight to Mt Cook. The drive in itself is a fascinating experience. Its was a bit scary to drive in snow especially, but first time’s has got its charm. Christchurch to Mt cook is about 325 KM. Its a road trip that I would highly recommend. 

Day 7 : Aoraki / Mount Cook is the highest mountain in New Zealand. This national Park is home of the highest mountains and the longest glaciers. Hike to the glaciers is not a physically challenging one. So I recommend it for anyone. Non-climbing visitors can enjoy the attractions of Aoraki/Mt Cook Village. We stayed in a backpacker lodge in Mt cook village. In he late afternoon we left to lake Wanaka. 

Day 8 : Lake Wanaka was surreal . After a relaxed cold morning in the banks of lake Wanaka, where we did nothing but revel in the view and a romantic walk, we left to Miford sound that day. Wanaka to Milford is about 340 Km. It was a long drive but this journey and the landscapes were quite different from what we had seen of new Zealand so far. 

Day 9: We hear so much about fiordland national park and its magic’s. If you are a nature/animal buff I would recommend to spend some more time here. There are a variety of options for cruise from 3 hours to multi day cruise. Kayaking in these waters were an un forgettable experience . We started back to queens town and had a quite evening that day. 

Day 10: Queens town is the worlds adventure capital. You name it and it can be done here. Since I already did bungee elsewhere and our budgets were tight for paragliding or skydiving we went off to visit wineries of this region. We were drunk enough by the time we were back and didn't venture out to do anything except for a romantic walk ( Yes again ) around the beautiful lake

Day 11: Off we go to Franz Joseph . Glacier walk and helicopter ride here was truly the gem of this trip. Not for once in my life I though that I will walk on a glacier. But here we were. Life’s surprises sometimes truly surpasses our expectations 

Day 12: We had reserved this day just for this drive without any other activity planned. Since it as the tail end of the trip only thing we wanted to do was to make a relaxed drive, the view and some time and space to take it all in .The drive from Franz joseph to Arthur pass . Our stay was in Hokitika that night and ventured out to find some food for dinner.In the truest sense we could experience what would have the earlier travelers felt on a night journey here. An Inn that has been around for decades, that hasn't changed much since the beginning of time, is what we stumble upon . I sat and read stories of famous and secluded farms of NZ and what life on one of these farms must have been. 

Day 13: The last day we started not with sadness but with some kind of strange fulfillment. We felt joy. We were happy to have done this and we were happy to return to our normal lives. The very last leg of our journey, to Christchurch and back home.

How Electronic Key Replacement Can Be A Saviour When You Have Lost Your Keys?

Ever been so afraid you misplaced your keys that you were unable to breathe? Imagine yourself standing in front of your vehicle or home, searching frantically through your purse or pockets, but you can’t locate your keys. In this instance, things may easily escalate from a little annoyance to a major problem. Should you be able to save a great deal of tension, money, and time, how would you feel? Introducing the realm of electronic key replacement—a novel approach to an age-old issue.

The Problem with Standard Keys

It has been hundreds of years since keys like these existed. They are easy to use and function nicely. They also have a few significant issues, though:

Easy To Misplace Or Pilfer: 

The small size of keys makes them simple to misplace or have someone else steal them.

Inadequate Safety 

Normal keys may be duplicated, which is not secure.

Rare Replacement: 

You will have to pay for and spend time getting a new key cut if you misplace your old one.

These issues indicate that there has to be a safer, better method of key management.

How Can One Change An Electronic Key?

The technical solution to the issues with standard keys is electronic replacement keys. Key fobs, smart keys, and smartphone applications are a few instances of electronic devices that let you enter your house or car. These systems go with cutting-edge protection and authentication techniques to ensure that only authorized users get access.

Features Of Electronic Key Replacement

Key replacement done electronically has the following benefits:

Higher Security

The safety aspect of changing keys electronically is among its finest features. Because electronic keys sometimes include encryption and dynamic codes that vary each time the key is used, it is difficult to duplicate one. This makes entry by those who are not meant to be there very difficult.

How Simple And Handy To Use It Is

Electronic keys provide unparalleled simplicity of use. A touch or press of a button on your phone may allow you to enter your house or automobile with many systems. Some even enable door locking and opening from any location in the globe. It comes in useful if you have to allow someone into your home when you’re not there.

Swift And Simple Replacement

If you misplace a plain old key, you have to see a locksmith and wait for a replacement to be fashioned. The use of an electronic key exchange makes the procedure much simpler. Depending on the system, you may often reset your old system or get a new key in a matter of minutes. You will find it very time and trouble-saving.

Sometimes misplacing your keys may be very upsetting and unpleasant. Here is where automated key replacement is useful. Better safety, unmatched use, and rapid repair options are all offered by this present method.

Locksmiths Tauranga Tips: What To Do When Your Lock is Stuck And Won't Open?

Ever find yourself standing in front of an unopening door? I take it that must be obnoxious. Consider yourself running late, a ton of goods in your arms, and a non-turning key. Or maybe, after a demanding day, you're ready to go home and the lock won't move. Should your lock not open, what should you do? Although this issue may affect everyone, you can save time and frustration if you know what to do. Locksmiths Tauranga provides some practical advice to assist you with this bothersome problem.

Working Out the Problem

Find out why your lock is stuck before you search for solutions. These are often the reasons:

Simple Home Improvements

Use this simple piece of advice yourself:

·  Lubricate The Lock.

One of the simplest things you can do is to grease the lock. Make use of a silicone-containing spray or graphite grease. Dirt may attach to items when lubricants based on oil, like WD-40, are used.

1.       Spoon the oil into the keyhole.

2.       To distribute the grease, insert the key and gently shake it.

3.       One more turn of the key.

·  View The Key

Look for damage to your key. Should the key be twisted or worn out, the lock may get jammed. Should you have an additional key on hand, use it. Sometimes a different key will serve you better.

·  More Diagnostic Information

Should the basic solutions prove ineffective, you may have to attempt more intricate ones.

·  Click The Lock Button.

Think the lock's pins are stuck? Slightly tap the lock with the back of a hammer or screwdriver. Sometimes doing this causes the pins to shift back into position.

·  Warm Up The Lock.

Wintertime may cause locks to freeze. Warm the lock with your hands or with a hair dryer. Allow a minute or two; the ice can take that long to melt.

·  When You Really Should Hire A Professional

Get expert assistance if none of these work. Using the services of qualified Tauranga locksmiths will guarantee that your lock is repaired without causing any additional harm.

·  Try Not Too Hard.

What would be worse is if you tried to push the key in; the lock may shatter. Should none of the aforementioned methods resolve your locked lock, you need to seek professional assistance.

·  Six Professional Tools And Techniques

For locks that won't open, locksmiths have specialised equipment and training. They are fast to identify the problem and to find a solution.

While dealing with a jammed lock might be unpleasant, most of the time these suggestions will help you get it resolved fast. Make sure the key turns and lubricate the components as simple solutions to start. Should they prove ineffective, try warming the lock or tapping, or anything more involved.

Key With Fob:

If you have a key with an external fob and lose the fob, you can still get into your car by using the key. You can also get in touch with a locksmith if you lose the key. In the worst case scenario, if you lose both the fob and the key, a locksmith can still help by cutting new keys to suit the locks and pairing a new remote in.

When using a keyless entry remote, there won't be any connection if either the transmitter or receiver, or the internal electronics of your automobile, are broken. Simple events like dropping, being exposed to extreme heat, and soaking in water, among others, can cause damage to the key fob.

Issue With Ignition Cylinder:

To keep you cruising down the road, all the components of your car interact with one another and function together. When one component fails, the failure of another component follows.

Additionally, debris and other objects could jam the keyhole, causing issues.

No Programmed:

If you just got a replacement key for your car, and it doesn't work, it's possible that it hasn't been programmed to work with the system yet. As a result, your car key cannot operate since it is out of sync with your vehicle's system.
