Alternative title: If I bought the place, I would probably tell my mother it's pronounced as a "W".
Just back from New Zealand reconnaissance mission. If you don't hear from me for a while, it's because I have swine flu.
Although smaller in scope than the last trip , there is still too much to write about at once. And I'm sick, jet-lagged, and hungry. So let's start with Whakatane.
Yes indeed, "wh" is pronounced as "f" in Maori. Go ahead, say Whakatane...it's fun. It was raining, so we didn't do much while we were there. The town reminded me of something you'd see in Hawaii...and they have an active (offshore volcano). That's all I know.
