Toa Tahu

Of the original six Toa Mata, who was your favorite?

I feel kind of nostalgia today, nobody remembers Bionicle? After careful consideration, I would have to say Tahu, because he had no shit from anyone and was always the first to make a move. And Kopaka is right behind him as my second favorite.

Lewa! cold mask, awesome weapons, talked funny! Definitely the coolest toa kills. Then Pohatu (action Kickin 'cool mask, great attitude) and Kopaka.

Marlborough Travel Guide

Marlborough is a region on the north-east coast of the South Island of New Zealand. Marlborough is renown for high sunshine hours, New Zealand’s largest wine growing area and the Marlborough Sounds.

Marlborough is on the east coast of the South Island. The long Wairau Valley bisects Marlborough. To the north is the Richmond Ranges and beyond, the drowned valleys of the Marlborough Sounds. To the south is the Awatere River and then the Kaikoura Ranges and coast. As the prevailing wind is westerly, Marlborough’s climate is hot and dry in summer and generally dry all year round.

Today all the iwi named above are recognized as having influence in Te Tau Ihu (the top of the South Island). Ngai Tahu is recognized as having a sphere of influence emanating from Kaikoura and points south. Rangitane are recognized as having influence in the Wairau Valley. Ngati Toa and Ngati Rarua have shared influence over all of Marlborough but especially concentrated on Port Underwood. Te Atiawa are recognized as having influence in Queen Charlotte Sound. Ngati Apa retained influence in Port Gore and towards the West Coast. Ngati Koata had influence on Rangitoto (D’Urville Is). Ngati Kuia has influence in the inner Pelorus Sound, with Ngati Tama having influence closer to Nelson.

 

PLACE TO VISIT

Whales off Kaikoura with a spectatular mountain backdrop

The Marlborough Sounds, an aquatic playground with bird and dolphin watching, walking, kayaking and sailing.

Vineyards stretching as far as the eye can see in the Wairau and Awatere Valleys.

Lake Grassmere – Where seawater is turned into huge piles of salt by the sun and evaporation as well as being a birdwatcher’s paradise. Between Seddon and Ward on State Highway 1.

 

WHAT TO DO

The Marlborough Wine Festival is held in February each year and on 9 February 2008. Experience over 200 wines from around 40 wineries and gourmet food. It is NZ’s longest running wine and food festival.

Garden Marlborough, an annuanl event running from 31 October – 5 November 2007 showcases Marlborough finest gardens.

The Kaikoura Seafest is a celebration of the region. Kaikoura meaning food of the sea in Maori has a justified reputation for crayfish, paua and fish. The festival started in 1995 and is held on the first Saturday of October each year. The 13th festival is to be held on Saturday 6th October 2007.

Marlborough is a outdoors paradise. It can be used as a base for tramping (treking or rambling) in the Nelson Lakes National Park, the Marlborough Sounds, the Richmond Ranges, the Kaikoura Ranges. One of Marlborough’s secrets is the Sawcut Gorge.

Ski Rainbow. 1 1/4 hours to the bottom of the access road, Rainbow Skifield is the northern most skifield in the South Island, close to the village of St Arnaud.
