Neukaledonien - Noumea
20 december 2023, Nya Kaledonien ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C
Neukaledonien gehört heute zu Frankreich. Wurde allerdings zuvor von James Cook entdeckt und erhielt deswegen auch seinen Namen. Jame Cook erinnerte die Insel mehr an das hügelige und teilweise schroffe Schottland und in der Tat sieht diese Insel ganz anders aus, als jene die wir bisher sahen.

Es gibt viele Bodenschätze und somit ist auch viel Bergbau im Betrieb. Palmen sind ehr wenige zu sehen. Die meisten wurden beim erschließen der Insel gepflanzt und so verwundert es auch kaum das der Hauptplatz Noumeas von ihnen gesäumt ist.

Unser Tag beschränkte sich darauf durch die Stadt zu bummeln.Läs mer

On a passé une semaine à Nouméa chez les cousins. On était comme à la maison et on a bien profité d’eux avant l’arrivée de la petite. On a fait une sortie en bateau à l’îlot Maître, on a passé une journée au parc de la rivière bleue (sous la pluie) on est allé à l’île aux canards en Kanoe, on a essayé d’éduquer leurs 2 poules, on les a aidés a préparer la chambre de Charlie et on a beaucoup beaucoup mangé...Läs mer

We braved the bus again today and spent the morning in Noumea at the Musée de la Ville and Musée de la Maritime. With a ‘café allongée’ a lunch ‘en baguette au balcon’ and dinner ‘à la Mexicaine’ we’re starting to feel like we fit in.Läs mer

Je suis arrive
24 december 2022, Nya Kaledonien ⋅ 🌧 26 °C
I have arrived in Noumea to a beautiful sunny warm day with no wind. I am in the same hotel in virtually the same room. It will do just fine but I could do a lot better - just saying. The free wifi ran out almost immediately and my wonderful overseas Telstra phone service hasn’t reached the pacific islands yet - so I may have to buy a sim or something next week. Found the shops were still open so I went to a little one nearby I know well and bought some great stuff. I tried to buy a baguette but the shop keeper refused to sell it to me. When I asked why he knocked it on the counter and said ‘merde’ - is that the word for stale? Hehe!! Quite right too -no civilised French person would buy a baguette at 5pm in the evening…. Unpacked then took in the sunset with a beer on the Promenade. They are doing up the waterfront ala Kirra (in prime time) and it will be nice but - the palms and narrow beach have gone in favour of a Surfers P style boulevard and more sand - hey it’s back to Holloways soon!! Still - looks good for a dip (bob) tomorrow. I hope Santa is on song for you all!Läs mer

A plan
26 december 2022, Nya Kaledonien ⋅ 🌧 26 °C
The weather was holding up this morning (rain overnight and a touch windier) so an early water taxi across to Ile Aux Canards was the plan. A tiny island less than 10 minutes boat ride away. I remember being horrified at the ‘got ya’ experience last time but a lot more relaxed this time. The taxi book in was a leisurely footpath affair (what could go wrong) with a beach pick up. It was actually a much more pleasant affair than the other official ferry office. Very friendly and quick! I remember the eye watering costs last time and the crowds. Going early I had the pick of the chairs and the package bought with the trip included a beach lounge and was very reasonable. Lovely morning, crystal clear water, a couple early beers and no sore feet due to reef shoes (total difference K - thanks). Really enjoyed the sojourn and will repeat this visit. Back to shore and a read at the pool. Got sent home after an hour as the rain set in. I write this 3 hours later and it is still steady. Had a wonderful filled baguette for lunch with some added wash rind for flavour. I have another mini baguette for brekkie tomorrow(the pain sac is amazing -keeps really fresh) and then it will be Le Marche brekkies onwards as they reopen from tomorrow . Big shout to Kerry again for the reef shoe discovery - it was at least 50% of making Ille deCanard a much better experience! Not sure much else will happen today as the rain is set - a few more restaurants are open today nearby so who knows…Läs mer

Dag 5
Action required - then settle back!
27 december 2022, Nya Kaledonien ⋅ 🌧 25 °C
The drizzle yesterday arvo turned into rain in the evening then a full blown storm for most of the night. No light show but plenty of rain and wind. The morning was more set with the lightest drizzle and lighter wind. A nice baguette brekkie and quick provision shop then I had some work to do. I needed cash, a phone that works and pick up the car. Auto tellers and obtaining sim were major frustrations on my last trip so I headed out with an open mind….the nearby auto teller (that has never been forthcoming in the past) gushed money! The Post Office a couple of kilometres walk up the road was the first attempt of 3 last time to set up my phone. 10 mins and done this time! The car hire was across the road and last time I gave up applying for a car on the island as the additional deposit was 3x the fee. Booking on the Qantas site there was none of that ! A very reasonable cost compared to now prices in Oz. This morning has me with a surprised face!! I have been steeling myself for some time about driving a LH drive car on foreign roads. K has just reminded me it is not my first time - we had a go in La Grona in Northern Spain. I have no recollection and even photos she has dug up don’t help - it must have been awful! Anyway off I go in the drizzle in a manual on a tiny road. Went for a 20 km training circuit and sorted - everything on the wrong side and upside down!! Will drive to town tomorrow for a market breakfast and then more of a tour (note to self - turning left it is the far lane to aim for!!) Back to the hotel for a rewarding beer at the hotel pool - still a bit drizzley. A walk to a beach to the south buying an umbrella on the way. A nice dip then back to the pool as it had big umbrellas- still only a drizzle but enough to wet stuff. A quiet time and then see how far the weather lets me explore this evening.Läs mer

Noumea
28 december 2022, Nya Kaledonien ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C
Noumea ist die Hauptstadt des französischen Überseegebietes Neukaledonien. Sie liegt auf einer 10 km langen, in vielen Buchten gegliederten Halbinsel im Südwesten der Hauptinsel Grande Terre. Rund 100.000 Einwohner leben heute in der Stadt, die 1854 als Port-de-France gegründet wurde und von deren Geschichte noch etliche Kolonialbauten zeugen. Der Hafen ist einer der größten geschützten Naturhäfen der Welt. Neben den Tourismus ist die Nickelverarbeitung die wichtigste Einkommensquelle. Noumea ist eine moderne, lebendige Stadt mit vielen Restaurants und guten Einkaufsmöglichkeiten.Läs mer

Noumea Ville
28 december 2022, Nya Kaledonien ⋅ 🌧 29 °C
Drove to the city for brekkie at the market - Le Marche de Noumea. Small but always interesting. Great croque madame with cafe au lait (not a Theo coffee!!) has set me up nicely. Enjoyed the market - bought some chillies, a t shirt and a stubbie cooler (predictable 🙄) then walked around the (small) city centre. Quite tacky but with some character thrown in. Changed some currency then jumped back in the car and just followed the one way streets. I knew I wanted to end up at a super Super Marche (Auchon) that I had been to before. Parking was like Bunnings - where I struggle in ‘normal’ cars. However - in and bought a hot fresh baked baguette, some nice cheese and some oysters. I was tempted by the bottle shop (AMAZING selection of French wine inc Gigondas etc etc) - however I was saved by having left my passport in the boot! Home to a relaxing hour by the pool - baking in a returning sun. Lunch was oysters, all of the above and White Bordeaux. Streaky Bay oysters have nothing to worry about (just saying) but it was a treat just the same. Noumea chillies now! (good too). Long walk along the Promenade and a quick dip - rolling thunder sent me home quick smart. Back to the pool with the big umbrellas for a good read. Just a few drops so far but it does look ominous. Won’t venture far tonight - probably to my (very close) footpath cafe again. They will know my name soon!
PS - the interweb doesn’t want upload this again tonight so…..tomorrowLäs mer

Out and about
29 december 2022, Nya Kaledonien ⋅ 🌧 26 °C
The plan is go touring - follow the more scenic looking coastline for a while and see what it brings. Croissant for brekkie from a local small baker. The croissant was superb and I wish the same could be said about the ‘cafe au lait’…….it was as ordinary as it looked. Jumped in the car and followed my route as best as. I planned to go the longer of the two loops and it was good until I reached the second loop. The first bit took an hour and while I was keen on doing La Grande Boucle the second section narrowed to a single lane, gung ho local cowboys in big utes (hello FNQ) and desolate scenery. As soon as the ‘penal’ signs appeared I turned around! A lovely drive however and missing a turn outside the city meant I saw a lot of the northern suburbs that I could have done without. Back to the pool for another sun drenched hour then a baguette and cheese lunch. A long walk looking for a new southern beach (fail) saw me back at south Anse Vata beach for a final pacific swim - gorgeous but I wasn’t alone! Back to the pool and then prepare for dinner. Tonight I think maybe…….Läs mer
