Whanganui River Canoe Trip - Whakahoro to Pipiriki

Whanganui River Journey, Great Walk 6 of 9 - Living a Kiwi Life - Ep. 28
New Zealand's famous 'great walk' canoe adventure on the Whanganui River. Dubbed the Whanganui Journey this 3-5 day experience thrusts you into multiple rapids and through deep canyons. We loved this experience, even capsizing in the infamous 50/50 rapids. A cool side trip can be taken on the second last day to the 'bridge to nowhere', a pretty cool bridge in the middle of nowhere that has no purpose (except as a tourist attraction). The final day has the heaviest rapids!

About the Series:
Living a Kiwi Life is about a Canadian couple (me and Jenna) who have lived in Canada all our lives and made the decision to move to New Zealand having never gone there before. We quit our jobs, sold our houses and cars and left everything we knew to explore an unknown.

Whanganui River Trip - Pipiriki to Matahiwi - Capsized - Lost my iPhone - New Zealand - nzbeeker
Over the years, I have kayaked from Taumarunui to Pipiriki twice. Have kayaked from Matahiwi to Aramoho in Whananui. This time, we are going from Pipiriki to Matahiwi, which completes all of the Whanganui river. This time, we capsize and I loose my leather hat, sunglasses... and my iPhone 10s Max. All home safe and well.

The Geographic Board has created a furore by recommending that the city of Wanganui be re-spelled Whanganui. There have been many places with Maori names that have been re-spelled over the years (an editor's nightmare!) but all have been small; this is the first city or sizeable town that has come up for re-spelling. The issue has already been put to local citizens by referendum and resulted in an 80% rejection, but that carries no weight with the Geographic Board.
Maori has only existed as a written language since European settlement and for some obscure reason the orthographers of the time decided to render the f sound as wh even though in other Polynesian languages f is used in spelling. In English, of course, an h after a w makes no difference to pronunciation. The issue is complicated by the fact that Wanganui is correctly pronounced in the local dialect like it is written now, and not with a f sound.
For most people who don't live in Wanganui the issue may be a storm in a teacup - but, what will be next? Using both Maori and European names has been the compromise often used, e.g. Somes Island and Matiu, Mt Cook and Aoraki, but the issue is certainly divided along racial lines and is not going to go away.
