Hamner Springs

This morning we drove to Hamner Springs from Christchurch. It took us about 2 hours to get there. We were all struggling from the night before. We went to Hamner Springs thermal pool and spa to sweat out the hangover. It definitley helped. Kyra had a coupon for a private pool so we all went in there first, it was inside. After this we went in a few of the hot pools. It was a beautiful sunny day and we could see the snowy mountains. The temperatures of the pools ranged from 34 degrees - 42 degrees. The heat from the pools were all natural and contained minerals. It really was relaxing.

We also had fun in the small water park. It was cold out waiting to que for the double rubber ring but it was worth it. The first slide we went around a big bowl and then dropped in the middle down a slide. The other slide we went down and up a steep quarter pipe. It was great fun! In the evening we drove to Kaikoura. We stayed at dusky dolphin backpackers.Read more
