Morning morning Curtis. Welcome to my hometown,.this part of the country is probably thee most friendliest in New Zealand or maybe the north island,. The east coat your going to love so much it's incredibly stunning and the locals are beautiful souls.. Ruatoria is the only place I've never stayed around long cause been the white boy you feel not to Welcome even though I'm born and raised around this whole area..but they arnt rude. You definitely came to gisborne when they finally have a summer I still visit my mum and family there, The last few years they had so much rain so I'm loving the summer of 2024 so far. The pies do be amazing. Have an amazing rest of your week.
Actually it is the Chatham Islands (Rekohu) that are first, specifically Pitt Island. Also because of the angle of the sunrise in summer, NE to SW, the whole east coast of NZ, North and South Islands get the sunrise at the same time. Dunedin sees the sunrise on 1st January at exactly the same time as Gisborne. The highest point along that line is the very first on mainland Aotearoa. That happens to be Mt Tapueanuku in the Kaikoura mountains in the South Island. That was recognised about 20-30 years ago actually by a Gisborne businessman.
Hi Curls, followed you for years. In fact the first NZ territory to see the rising of the Sun is the amazing Chatham Islands. Definitely recommend it! Would be right up your alley. Fantastic hosts by the way to. Cheers & Best Tony
Actually, Gisborne has claimed to be the first city (not just a place) on Earth to see the sunrise each day. However, this is only true during New Zealand's summer months, due to Samoa and Tokelau's dateline shift in December 2011.
+wait I've been lied to I'm whole life then lol..as a gisborne native we even have a sign saying we are the first 😂, We can share the first rising then 🤫😂
I have lived in NZ all my life and haven't yet been to Gisborne; you've been here a few years I believe and I'm sure you been to more places than what I have, so I'm seeing NZ and all those yummy pies through your eyes
glad you seemed to have a good time bro, my hometown, can be a bit rugged around the edges but we take alot for granted. nice to see someone elses perspective, sun hits different on the east coast
Only in the summer months, between Nov - Jan and it's actually the Chatham islands. NZ's claim to fame is that it is 1st country to see the NEW YEARS DAY. Officially Kiribati Islands is internationally recognized as the 1st country in the world to see the new day! ( got to let them have it, they not known for anything else) 2nd is Russia Because of the difference in the latitudes, different countries see the sunrise first depending on the time of the year. The countries where the sun rises first in the world are: Kiribati (Kiritimati) - September 27 to November 13 / January 31 to May 15 (153 days) Russia (Kamchatka area) - May 16 to September 26 (134 days) New Zealand (Chatham Island) - November 14 to January 30 (78 days)
A bit off beam, Curls. You need to go somewhat northeast to East Cape or Mt Hikurangi to see the first sun of each day in Aotearoa mainland. Actually, to be really correct you need to go WAAAY north-east to Millenium /Caroline Island (which is part of the country) to see the first sun in the world. That's a few thousand km from Gisborne!!! 🙂🙂
Sorry Curls but Gisborne is no longer the first place to see the sun, that would be Kiribati which extended the line east in 1995 to keep the same time throughout the country, which previously fell on both sides of the international date line. But it is still the first city to see the new day sun. That bird sounded like a bellbird, or korimako, also called a makomako in some areas.
There is a island just outside of N.Z. that gets the sun 1st. I think it is called Chatham Island. But in N.Z. Mt Hikurangi is the 1st part of N.Z. that sees the sun first. I was in Gisbourne in April 24' it looked like, the houses never saw a lick of paint since the 1970's. I wasn't liking the rainbow crossing. I felt violated. It should have been outlawed. The red crossing, if it is raised, cars by law have to stop. If it is flat, it will only be a coutesy for them to stop. Mate, that was the 3rd city i been to, that you showed up to in 18 months that i was there.
The international timeline is the 180th meridian. New Zealand isn’t the first country to see the sunrise. I believe the island of Tuvalu at 179 degrees 5.1 East meridian should have that status.
Red crossings are courtesy crossings. Cars don't have to stop like they do for zebra crossings so it's a bit bold to just bowl out onto one. We have them in Napier as well.
While it's true that New Zealand is not the first country to see the rising sun, Gisborne's claim to fame has always been that it is the first city in the world to see the sun each day.
The first place to see the sun on earth before New Zealand is Tonga in the furthest eastern part of Nukualofa. Also Samoa will see if before them too!! do some research and you will see. The Islands get written off since its not as big as NZ in terms of the avg persons geographical knowledge.

My hometown! I spent the first 23 years of my life here and moved away in 2007. Now I reside in Wellington. The weather difference was an adjustment 😅

Great video Curls 😃

Really like your coverage Mr Curls , ' You should ve captured the sunrise when it came up :-) John ( Canty)
Tonga 🇹🇴 Dateline is the first to see the sun 🌞
"Alone at the edge of the universe humming a tune" ahh video 😭🙏

It sounded lovely 🎵🎼🎵
Will never forget Gizzy 2000.
Red or Black raised crossings are curtesy crossings

3 pies seems your addicted curls seems a kiwi style pieshop in the Uk would do well
Bro, Gizzy has amazing produce. Get out and country and try some. A man cannot live on pies alone 😂
The international timeline is the 180th meridian. New Zealand isn’t the first country to see the sunrise. I believe the island of Tuvalu at 179 degrees 5.1 East meridian should have that status.

All this travelling and bro still hasn't visited Dunners yet 😭

You were so missed cx
how many pies do you have a day :)
The first place to see the sun on earth before New Zealand is Tonga in the furthest eastern part of Nukualofa. Also Samoa will see if before them too!! do some research and you will see. The Islands get written off since its not as big as NZ in terms of the avg persons geographical knowledge.
Samoa used to be the last place to see the sun until they changed the dateline.
Pfft Samoa just changed the time zone and is only relevant in winter.
Mt hikurangi sees the sun first
Watch out for the snakes ..... oh that's right, NZ doesn't have any
Curls your looking very thin.
Nothing like a walk through nature😊
Isn't Aleo in America Samoa the first place to see the sun??!!!
Or Kiribati??.........
make sure to were sunscreen bro
My town is the best in the world
