Christchurch

Efter at være ankommet til Christchurch indså jeg, at min satellit-lifesaver, Garmin InReach, var væk. Jeg ringede derfor til det hostel, jeg havde været hos, og håbede, at de havde fundet den, men desværre ikke. Jeg fik derfor meldt den stjålet/mistet hos politiet, så de kan kontakte mig, hvis de får den indleveret. Jeg har dog en mistanke om, at jeg kan have glemt den i bilen med det lift, jeg fik i går mod Wānaka. Jeg har derfor “efterlyst” parret i forskellige Facebook-grupper i området, om nogen kender deres hund og dermed dem! Jeg håber derfor, at den snart dukker op, ellers skal jeg have anskaffet mig en ny.

Jeg har haft fire dage i Christchurch, som mest har bestået af afslapning!
Da far og Lotte ankom til Christchurch, mødtes jeg med dem og deres rejsehold, som jeg var ude at spise med den ene aften. Dagen efter stod den på lidt shopping med far, inden han skulle med bussen mod lufthavnen. Det var dejligt, at det kunne lade sig gøre at ses, nu han var taget helt herned. Så er otte timer med bus en bagatel.

Nu er jeg på vej tilbage med bus mod Queenstown, hvorfra jeg starter igen. Jeg håber til det sidste, at min Garmin dukker op!

After arriving in Christchurch, I realised that my satellite lifesaver, my Garmin InReach, was missing. I therefore called the hostel I had stayed at and hoped they had found it, but unfortunately they hadn’t. I reported it as stolen/lost to the police so they can contact me if it gets handed in. However, I suspect that I may have left it in the car of the lift I got yesterday towards Wānaka. I have therefore “put out a search” for the couple in various Facebook groups in the area, hoping someone recognises their dog and, through that, them! I really hope it turns up soon otherwise, I’ll have to get a new one.

I’ve spent four days in Christchurch, which have mostly consisted of relaxing!
When my dad and Lotte arrived in Christchurch, I met up with them and their travel group, and I went out for dinner with them one evening. The next day was spent doing a bit of shopping with my dad before he took the bus to the airport. It was really nice that we managed to see each other now that he had travelled all the way down here. That makes an eight-hour bus ride feel like a small price to pay.

I’m now on my way back by bus towards Queenstown, where I’ll be starting again. I’m holding out hope until the very last moment that my Garmin turns up!Læs mere
