Friday 24th
January
We had a lovely drive
today, down through miles of grape vines and wineries, soaring hills
and farms, down to the coast road and the turquoise sea. It wasn't a
long drive today, only about 2 hours, but we kept stopping at every
view point, and then for coffee, before arriving in Kiakoura and our
camp, two minutes walk into town.
Wild beaches along the way
We had time to have a
good look around town and walk down the coast path. We passed the
I-Centre and booked ourselves on a Star Gazing Tour tonight at 10pm.
Really looking forward to that. Kiakoura has the feel of a
backpackers place, but I'm sure there is much more to it and it seems
so quiet, but then the holiday season has finished. It's mainly
known for Whale Watching, but there many other things to see, seals,
dolphins and Albatross', and for Crayfish, so thinks we should try
some before we leave.
Rod took me on a date tonight, out for a drink in town. There's not a lot going on in Kiakoura! Lovely place.
