    Well Ben dropped us off at 05.30am and we went straight to drop our bags off. I asked them to make sure they both come with us 🤣 Answer was of course we never lose luggage (Emirates) that was. But followed up with there is a delay though. We arrived at the gate to find the crew sat waiting, we did think not a good sign, but @ 20 mins and they started to board and it was quick. We arrived in Christchurch in the sunshine 🌞 pickup only took a few minutes to arrive and took us to the waiting Motorhome! OMG it was a sharabang, Martin told him we're not staying in that for 3 weeks. It wasn't what we had paid for. Anyway we think they were trying it on as when I said what can you do for us, he said I can get you a new one but not till Thursday. So change in routes and after a nights rest in the Christchurch camp site we had booked we got up and out in the morning to Arthur's Pass WOW it was beautiful. We booked into a campsite on the way back to Christchurch to change Vans the next lunch time. This one is 100% better and we got going to Kaikoura as it was a 3 hour drive. We arrived at the camp site and unpacked. We went into town for something to eat. Yum, yum slow roast brisket & Ribs at the Strawberry Inn. Knackered now we went back for a sleep and up at 8am again for another full day 😴.Les mer
