    Final days in Motueka

    December 24, 2017 in New Zealand ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

    While we were in Motueka, we kept our eyes and ears open for anything going on. We went to the i-Site often for power and wifi. Every Sunday, a community market was held there. Some local fruits and vegetables, arts and crafts and much more was sold there. It was fun to just wonder around.

    We also found a great Fish and Chips store, BK's. The servings were massive and the fish delicious.

    Our car battery continued to deteriorate. So we asked Mike, our supervisor, for a recommended shop to go to. Since Mike is a regular customer, we got a good deal from a local mechanic, and he installed it for free! And on top of that, we learned how to do it.

    For Christmas, we also decided to go to the movies. The theatre in Motueka is right across from the community garden. We went in early to buy our tickets, in case it would fill up. The theatre is small and cozy. There were some technical problems with the 3D but after a few tweaks, the owner got it running smooth. A jack of all trades. We saw the new Star Wars!
