• Day 7b-Picton (from Lindsay)

    12. december, New Zealand ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C

    Millie and I (Lindsay) left the boat early getting straight on the bus without needing to wait, just before getting on we got given a flower boutonniere.
    When we arrived I asked Millie should we go get some Breaky the answer was overwhelmingly "yes' followed by a pointing finger and “Subway! For Breaky”. We could have gone anywhere but that’s where we went. It was the old railway building.
    We then walked into town and millie played on a ship playground for a little while before we walked along the pier/beach and then we went to the local markets where we found some great little books with some kiwis in them and Millie adopted a new friend.; a recycled fabric turtle that supports the local wildlife carers. He’s now named “Unstold” which is the turtle from Nevermore.
    We went to the museum and looked through all the history. Then headed to the park where the water had been turned on to make it a water playground. We spent a good hour there with Millie playing in the water and having fun, then moved onto a pond and hired a small toy sailboat to play with. Millie had a train ride, went on the old carousel and had an icecream.
    Not without an element of drama, a big bumble bee landed on Millie's shoe and freaked her out.
    We shopped a little and then came back to the boat. It was a lovely mummy daughter day.
