Nina, Jerry, Birgit & Gerd at the Waitaki Lake Reserve

We spent two weeks traveling around the South Island with Birgit and Gerd, "Ronin," from Germany. We met them first in Portobello, Panama, again in Mangareva in French Polynesia, and then in Tauranga, New Zealand at the Bridge Marina. Gerd was one of our line-handlers when "Arctracer" went through the Panama Canal.
