Ward - Hanmer Springs

After breakfast, I went to Ward Beach. Nice place with some smaller boulders and some nice small rockpools here and there.
I took a short walk on the beach and then I went down State Highway 1 to Kaikoura!
I stopped a few time to enjoy the view and I also saw a lot of seals 😊

In Kaikoura, I bought some fish and Chips! Really cheap actually and really good as well! I took them with and drove a few more kilometers until I found a beach where I had my lunch break, surrounded by a lot of birds 🙈😂

Guess they were hungry as well, but I don't like to share my food so they were waiting for nothing 😂

After lunch, I started to drive to Hanmer Springs. I to the scenic road through the inland.
It was a really nice road, ok not nice to drive but the view was amazing!!
I don't know how many times I stopped but it must have been a lot!
The nicest one was the Waiau River with its ice-blue water! 😍

And then suddenly all the cars stopped. The police were there and making an alcohol test from every diver! That was very unexpected but no problem for me! They have really good machines. I should just could out loud to ten while they hold it in front of my mouth and that's all. Not blowing in there for like a minute or so!

My plan was to check out the city before I go to the campground, but it was so full in the city, to find a parking place there was impossible, so I went straight to the campground.
I found a cheap one again, luckily a little bit outside the city closed to the forest.

The weather started to change shortly after that and I got really windy, later in the evening, it was almost like a storm. 😳
I am soo glad I can sleep in my car now and not in a tent anymore!!Weiterlesen
