This is biiiigggg sheep country we are riding through today. I’m not sure if I enjoy watching the joy of the sheepdoggos happily doing what they are trained to do, watching the little four legged fluff balls do what they do best (either graze or move to greener pastures) or watch the expertise of the sheep wranglers.
I have little knowledge about this line of work but someday would really like to learn more.
Today was also Tom’s first ice cream! He’s wayyyy behind schedule in that effort. Look for that to change soon.
Bumped up the mileage and elevation a bit today, too.
In just a few days we will arrive in New Zealand’s capital city, Wellington, take a day off and then catch a ferry to the South Island across Cook Straight. We will be over half done with the Tour Aotearoa.
From what we’ve heard from northbounders, it’s very different from the North Island. We’re going to miss counting sheep as we peddle by, but Welly, we have our eyes on ewe!👀
