• WOOLY JUMPER DAY

    25 februari, Nya Zeeland ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C

    Sad morning leaving our Wanaka family and stunning central Otago yesturday. We've become very fond of the area since we started making regular visits. However the West Coast is pretty cool too so we will enjoy our time here. We have some maintenence to attend to when we're home. Accessories not body work this time. 😉 The winder for our awning snapped, our awning light needs replacing, our microwave is buzzing so has been unplugged, screws have come out of our bedroom mirror and the shower head. (both have stripped so need plugs) and then yesturday on the way here our bathroom tap fell off 😵‍💫 I guess it's a sign of mileage covered and our uneven roads. Very wet day today, our first so been pretty lucky. Had planned to spend the day kayaking Okarito Lagaoon and Wetlands 25min north. Lots of birdclife there, including the beautiful Kotuku (White Heron). Stayed put in Franz till after lunch and just called in for a look at the lagoon as we drove passed on our way to Hokitika. It's a quaint seaside settlement with lots of walking tracks and lagoon activities. We've decided a return visit is a must if we come back this way. Had to make do with photos not the kyak experience this time. Hokitika NZMCA is full so we have come a few kms up the road to Woodstock Domain for the same cost. Hoping to cycle tomorrowLäs mer
