Back at Pelorus Bridge

Our morning tea stop today was at Okiwi Bay – a relatively large settlement compared to the other bays we’ve visited. We sat on the waterfront with our coffees and watched the boats coming and going… and another huge ray glided along in front of us in less than a metre of water. Once the sandflies started biting we knew it was time to hit the road again!
We arrived back at Pelorus Bridge late morning and spent the day catching up: 2 loads of laundry, a quick clean of the vehicle, refilling the water tanks, planning our route for the next few days, and checking our messages. We’ve had either no – or very limited – cellphone coverage while we’ve been in the Sounds, so apologies to those of you who have tried to contact us. It has been great to get your messages via text, but almost impossible to connect to email, and there has been no way to make calls. Hopefully this will improve over the next couple of days.Read more
