Chapter 1457 Speeding!

People often ask where is the fun of skiing?

Yang Cheng couldn't give a standard answer, and he hardly played double boards, because the double boards were not exciting enough for him to do the thrilling moves of single boards.

But if the fun lies in the stimulation, it seems not absolute, because whenever he bends his knees and accelerates to slide, his body instinct is still a little scared, but his courage overcomes his fear, which makes him challenge one after another. An advanced piste.

And the reason why he didn't become a professional athlete is because he has difficulty finding lasting excitement in this sport.

I still miss it after not playing for a long time, but after skating excitedly, I immediately lost the desire to continue playing again. No, William took Kate and took the cable car again, ready to change to another ski track.

But Yang Cheng lazily leaned on Luo Yue, sitting on the terrace, looking at the endless Baitou Mountain not far away, and the lake dotted like jewels, quietly in a daze.

Not long after, Luo Yue suddenly said, "Kate seems to have discovered William's inappropriate behavior."

Yang Cheng raised her head in surprise, "Huh? What did she tell you?"

Luo Yue tilted her head, as if her scheme had succeeded, she put her head on Yang Cheng's shoulder, "She just asked me how to take care of a man's private life."

After a pause, she guessed firmly, "I think she must have discovered something, otherwise she wouldn't have asked."

While secretly praying for William, Yang Cheng was also worried about whether the island party should continue.

He said casually, "Don't worry about him, this is someone's family business, we can't care about it~"

Luo Yue squinted her eyes, and smiled coquettishly, "I know, I just think it's very funny, so the royal family also has so many troubles."

Yang Cheng chuckled, "Of course, they are also human beings, and the big family has many interests, so there will always be various disputes. It's normal. William is lucky to have met a long-lived grandmother."

Luo Yue didn't continue this topic, but instead asked, "Where are we going in a while? We won't be staying at the ski resort for a day, right?"

"What? Bored?"

"Hmm~ I don't think it's interesting~"

Yang Cheng thought for a while, "How about we go out to sea to watch whales? It seems that we can see sperm whales here~"

If it is an ordinary humpback whale or baleen whale, it is not interesting.

Whale watching has also become a victim of commercialization these days. It is not as interesting as the whales they occasionally encounter when they go out to sea on a yacht.

But if you can meet the rare blue whale, it's a different matter. Witnessing a sea monster several times larger than the boat on the boat is definitely an extraordinary experience.

Then there is the sperm whale, the absolute overlord of the deep sea. The great white shark is not even qualified to be called a younger brother in front of it. It is even rarer to see than the blue whale. Many Nordic legends describe the sperm whale as a monster. Curiosity is left in people's hearts.

Therefore, Luo Yue became interested in an instant, jumped up and nodded her head repeatedly, "Okay, okay, but can I really see it?"

Yang Cheng was not sure, so he could only rely on the memory in his mind and said, "It should be possible. I remember that there is a small town called Kaikoura on the east coast, which is a holy place for whale watching. Will William come back and ask them later. It means that if they have no objections, we will set off and drive there immediately."

Luo Yue had no idea of ​​the terrain here, and thought it was only an hour or two by car, so she didn't say anything more. In fact, Yang Cheng thought so too.

But when they got in the car and turned on the navigation, they realized how harmful empiricism is.

The South Island of New Zealand is southwest-northeast, Queenstown is in the southwest of the South Island, and Kaikoura is in the southeast corner of the South Island, basically across the entire South Island, according to the navigation planning route, they at least It takes more than 8 hours to drive to the small town of Kaikoura.

There is no way, since the route has been planned, let’s go, I have to say, this is also a different kind of experience.

Moreover, the road conditions in New Zealand are very good. It is winter, and there are not many cars. The snow that fell a few days ago has melted, and the road is still dry, which gave Yang Cheng a chance to step on the accelerator.

The general speed limit in New Zealand is 100, and it doesn’t matter if you occasionally drive to 120. After all, there are not as many electronic dogs in country Z as a whole!

But I don't know if I didn't read the almanac before going out, and my luck is also very bad.

After driving nearly half of the distance, Yang Cheng felt a little tired, so he changed to William to drive. This guy had no clue. He saw that there was a straight road in front of him. When he stepped on the accelerator, the Land Rover immediately started to run wildly. It probably took about 10 seconds. The time has passed 140.

As a result, just after passing an uphill, they saw a police car on the side of the road. The two sirs didn't know what they were doing on the side of the road. They watched Yang Cheng and his blue Land Rover swish by.

William looked at the rearview mirror stupidly, "Are we speeding?"

Yang Cheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Nonsense~"

Before he finished speaking, the alarm bell rang out from behind.

Fortunately, William didn't lose his mind, stepped on the brakes to slow down, and honestly turned on the turn signal to stop the car slowly to the side of the road.

When the police car cut in front of the car and stopped to prevent them from escaping, a sir jumped out of the car and knocked on the window on the side of the cab.

After William lowered the car window, his expression froze, and he asked in a tentative tone, "His Royal Highness?"

William nodded slightly and smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I seem to be speeding, you know the road conditions here are too good, I didn't control the speed well."

The prince personally apologized and explained the reason for the speeding. The JC in New Zealand was quite enlightened, but he just warned with a smile, and then shyly asked to take a photo with William.

Another JC also joined in, and simply added the princess, which is considered to be buy one get one free, and everyone took a group photo together on the side of the road, and William shook hands with the two JCs kindly, this small setback is over. up.

After getting back on the road, William let out a heavy breath, "Fortunately, we didn't meet the Maori aborigines, otherwise the news that we were caught speeding in New Zealand would have spread all over the world within half a day."

This time, William didn't dare to step on the accelerator any more, and ran with the speed limit of 100.

Yang Cheng deliberately sneered, "Are you scared?"

William confessed, "This kind of thing is too embarrassing, it would be best not to expose it~"

Talking and laughing all the way along the coastline, the beautiful scenery always makes people unable to stop and look at it. After all, there was not much time wasted. People rested in the car and finally arrived at this small town built by the sea at 6:00 p.m. Town - Kaikoura.

The town is not far from Christchurch, about 2 hours' drive away. Relying on the whale watching industry, it attracts many tourists from Christchurch. Every year, a large number of tourists come to Kaikoura to watch whales, which also stimulates other local economic industries. , such as catering!

In the Maori language, Kaikoura means lobster feast, so when you come to Kaikoura, apart from whale watching, you must find a local restaurant and taste the delicious lobster feast, which is a worthwhile trip.

Because they arrived in Kaikoura late, Yang Cheng and the others had no choice but to book a viewing boat for the next day. It was not a fixed flight, but an extra flight specially set up for them. Whales are also happy to make a quick buck.

After driving for a day, the four of them were very hungry. After entering the small town of Kaikoura, they didn't go any further, and went directly to a roadside restaurant to sit down and eat.

Backed by mountains and rivers, Kaikoura is extremely rich in seafood resources. Naturally, the local people’s dependence on and demand for seafood is extremely large. Almost every household can cook authentic seafood meals, and there is no need to go to star hotels. , any roadside stall can make delicious dishes.

But now that we are in Kaikoura, lobster is a must, especially New Zealand's rock lobster, which can be called a treasure among lobsters, although it is not as famous as the Australian lobster next door.

But the rock lobster has a unique appearance, with a purple-red shell and orange-red legs, because it mainly lives in the cold and clear sea near Antarctica, with a long growth cycle and a more delicious taste, especially its tender meat, which is a living in The Aolong in warm waters is far inferior, and the taste is excellent!

Yang Cheng and the others ordered a total of four rock lobsters, and they came with an enlarged version of the lobster for four meals - sliced ​​sashimi, grilled with salt and pepper charcoal, baked with cheese, and a home-cooked method that the locals prefer, with a unique sauce. It has a special flavor, the firm lobster meat, bite down, full of happiness. Sure enough, the food must be eaten locally in order to taste the most original and authentic delicacy!

In addition to lobster, there is another ingredient that must be mentioned-oysters!

As one of the purest countries in the world, New Zealand has always been the world's top water quality. With the world's highest quality and pure sea water, New Zealand can naturally have the best sea food in the world, and oysters are the best among them!

Foodies all over the world know that New Zealand oysters are sweet, delicate, plump and juicy. Among them, Bluff oysters and Kaikoura lobsters are almost equally famous, and they are also must-eat foods for tourists who come to New Zealand, just like people It's a pity not to eat roast duck when you arrive in the capital. Since Yang Cheng and the others are here, of course they must try "the best oysters in the world".

In fact, with their status and status, they have long been very familiar with the taste of Bluff oysters, but no matter how timely the air transport is, it is still not as delicious as the local ones. The subtle differences are for people with sensitive tongues. Say, it's a world of difference!

Similar to rock lobsters, Bluff oysters also grow in the southern waters of New Zealand, very close to the Antarctic. The cold sea water makes Bluff oysters plump and juicy, with a little lemon juice, without any cooking methods , is the most intoxicating delicacy in the world.

Besides, when people are lucky, farting is delicious, but the impromptu trip to New Zealand happened to coincide with the Bluff Oyster Festival held in May every year.

In this gourmet festival, the fresh Bluff oysters served on-site will definitely fill your stomach, and you can eat them in different ways, fried or charcoal-grilled.
