At the Polynesian Cultural Center you can meet, learn, and interact with the people of Hawaii, Samoa, Maori New Zealand (Aotearoa), Fiji, Tahiti, the Marquesas and Tonga. The Polynesian Cultural Center is fun for all ages. It is the top paid Hawaiian attraction and deserves a trip every time you visit Hawaii. In this clip, watch as two Samoans demonstrate a climb up a coconut tree effortlessly. www.polynesia.com I love that place(: **UPDATE JUNE 25, 2010** So, my fiance knows how much I enjoyed this place so he took me again during my visit to meet his friends and family a few weeks back. The show has changed a little bit. Now, only one man climbs the tree, and it is neither of these two trees, but one further to the left with no coconuts. He isn't as funny as the other guy, but the other funny guy now runs the show(: I can't believe i have over 15k views for this thing. Lol. I only thought it'd get like 12. So thanks to all of you who've watched(: Feel free to email with questions!

"Mount Cook Summit" Mrduss's photos around Aoraki/Mount Cook, New Zealand (linda glacier photos)
Preview of Mrduss's blog at TravelPod. Read the full blog here: http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/mrduss/2/1261869443/tpod.html This blog preview was made by TravelPod using the TripAdvisor™ TripWow slideshow creator. Entry from: Aoraki/Mount Cook, New Zealand Entry Title: "Mount Cook Summit" Entry: "Toutes les photos en ligne All pictures Online http://picasaweb.google.fr/mr.duss/MtCo ok2009?authkey=Gv1sRgCNj1u6-29sPQ2QE# « Climb if you will, but remember, courage and strength are naught without prudence, and one moment of negligence can destroy the happiness of a lifetime. Do nothing in haste, and look well into each step and think of what maybe the end." Edward Whymper This saying was posted in the common room of Plateau Hut, the base to climb up to Aoraki/Mt Cook, Mt Tasman, Dixon and other delicacies of NZ alpinism. Whymper, one of the pioneers of mountaineering, could only but right and I decided to learn this saying by heart, so at the minimum I will have my mind busy for the 2 or 3 hours climbing at night thru the Linda Glacier. Vaughn was my new partner for this climb. A young fellow from Christchurch who called me up a few days earlier and showed up at Mt Cook Village the very next evening. With just the right personality, good mountaineering skills and a great cook, he was the perfect fit. Before we went up to Plateau Hut, we stayed at the Canterbury Mountain Club where I tasted the Xmas cake, Xmas pudding and black pudding (boudin noir or blood sausage for breakfast) with Vaughn's homemade bread (so good I now have to learn how to bake it). Since we were flying to Plateau Hut, food would not be scarce up there, a success for summit...among a few other things. We were fortunate to have at least 2 days of good weather and good conditions, maybe even a bit too warm for good snow on the Zurbriggen Ridge, an alternate route more technical but safer than the traditional Linda Glacier, where giant crevasses and seracs are a continuous threat, especially under the "Gun Barrel", named for a good reason. By 1.30 am we were ready for Big Jim (Jim Cook was one of the discoverers of NZ) catching slowly on the 4 other teams who left earlier. The snow was questionable for the Zurbriggen Ridge and we decided to follow the Linda Glacier route, zigzagging thru giant crevasses, going in and out for some, and 2 hours later, we were heading first to the Linda Shelf, a very steep slope of mixed snow and ice that we decided to free climb (no rope, just our 2 axes and good cramponing -- only one falls instead of 2 if you are roped). Dave and Alejandro (the other non guided team, respectively American and Chilean) decided to take a break, so we were on our own...sounds promising for a summit...at least for 5 minutes. Vaughn is stopping for a little while, he has cramps in both legs. He wants to rest to get better and tells me to continue up the ridge. I wait at the ridge for a while, call him up. I don't hear an answer nor can I see him. I backtrack to find him walking up the Linda Shelf slowly and in pain. He wants to go to the ridge and will assess the situation from there. I can only see the ridge as our turning point to get him down safe. After some water, food and a good massage to his legs he feels better and is ready to continue to my big surprise. The little massage I gave him up on the ridge will become a joke as another team coming up saw the scene from far away, which obviously appeared a little bit too cosi for climbing partners! Instead of going up the traditional gully, we go up the ridge to catch up with the 2 other teams who did not turn around at that point (Dave and Alejandro, Mal -- a local guide -- and Cesar from Venezuela). This is 3 teams to pitch the ridge, too many to move fast as it appears to be a challenging mix of ice and slabby rocks. It takes the 3 teams a long time to get to the final ridge and I still think that it is too late and we would have to turn around shortly to play it safe. Apparently I am wrong and everyone is very eager to summit that day. My barometer is off by 100 m, so I evaluate another 300 m when it is only a short 200 m of a beautiful final narrow snow ridge ahead of us. While the 2 other teams pitch their way up, Vaughn and I decide to free climb to ..."

The most difficult big wall climb on Earth
After two months working in the mountain Picu Urriellu, in the Heart of the Picos de Europa (Asturias, north of Spain), Iker and Eneko Pou finished their most complicated project to date. Orbayu route, proposed as a 8c+/9a difficulty, is arguably the world's hardest multiple route in big walls. http://www.redbull.com/cs/Satellite/en_INT/Sports/Adventure-Sports/001242745960019

"Climbing, At Last" Christineanne's photos around Long Beach, New Zealand (otago semester flat)
Preview of Christineanne's blog at TravelPod. Read the full blog here: http://www.travelpod.com/travel-blog-entries/christineanne/1/1272827144/tpod.html This blog preview was made by TravelPod using the TripAdvisor™ TripWow slideshow creator. Entry from: Long Beach, New Zealand Entry Title: "Climbing, At Last!" Entry: "Since I last wrote, I haven't had many adventures worth writing about. I have just gotten over the halfway point of the semester -- I took my mid-semester exam for Hydrogeology and submitted my essays for Māori Society. Just last week, I finished my Field Studies class completely -- the Borland report (15 pages plus map, cross section, strat columns and chronostrat columns) was submitted and the Lab Practical completed. I now only have 2 classes to worry about, which makes my already lax schedule that much more so...which gives me plenty of time to plan fun adventures. Autumn has most certainly arrived and turning to winter -- many of the leaves are off of the trees and our flat has become quite cold. The extra blankets and hot water bottles have come out and been used by a few of my fellow flatmates. I am holding out -- it's still not cold enough to validate using them. It will be interesting, however, not having heat for the winter. I have never actually not had heat before -- I'll let you know come June how I am doing. I'll probably be spending a considerable amount of time in the library -- not to study but to get warm. Also, I'm thinking about looking into flights to the North Island. My exam schedule would allow me to travel a week before my first exam (12 June) and a week in between (my other exam is 21 June), so by that time I will probably want to head to the tropics... Anyway, I write because I finally have some exciting news. My friend, Callum, took me climbing this weekend, and I (despite being completely out of shape for it) had a great time! Yesterday, we went to Long Beach (North of Dunedin, near Port Chalmers) where the weather was sunny and warm (contrasting with Dunedin's weather of cold rain). The beach was lovely and there were a bunch of neat caves -- one where people often camp on the weekends and another that has good bouldering (if you're a spider monkey who doesn't actually need holds to hang onto the rock...). We did a few easy climbs to give me confidence (I told him to be nice to me, as I haven't been climbing since January), and we had extraordinary views of the beach and ocean below. He totally made my day by taking me... Today in Dunedin, the weather was spectacular. It was sunny and warm, so Callum called me up and we went back to Long Beach to do some more climbing (how lucky I was this weekend!). Interestingly, Long Beach was a little colder than Dunedin -- there was a chilly breeze, and although it was pleasant in the sun, as soon as you were in the shade it got quite cold. Callum set up a top rope over a route that features a nice crack for us to climb (ended up being a project, really). The crack was rated a 19 on New Zealand's rating system, and after climbing it I would guess it would be close to 5.8+ or 5.9- in the States. It was quite difficult but overall a very fun route (once I got it). I haven't been crack climbing for 2 and a half years, and it felt pretty good to be back on real rocks. I felt pretty good this morning (not too sore from the previous day's climbing), but I can already tell that my body is not pleased with me. I am quite sore and my hands took a beating (just a couple of bleeders and ripped up pads), but it feels good to finally be back climbing again. Hopefully there will be some more nice days so that I can go again. Beth is coming to visit on Saturday -- she will be coming from Singapore, so it will be interesting to try and outfit her for winter as she is lacking in warm weather clothes. I have booked our next great adventure -- I will be taking off of school (just Thursday, I think) and we are taking a bus to Te Anau. From there we head to Milford Sound to take a cruise on the fiord and we have booked a tour of the glowworm caves in Te Anau, which I am so excited for. It should be a great trip, hopefully the weather is on our side. Fiordland can be quite rainy, and this past week Te Anau, Manapouri and Queenstown have all experienced major flooding. We shall see!"
