• Day 14 arrived in Kaiapoi

    May 7, 2023 in New Zealand ⋅ ☁️ 14 °C

    Left Hanmer at lunchtime after a walk at the Forest Sculpture Amble. Wasn't sure what an amble was but Denise assured me it was a slow walk. Dogs enjoyed it. 😉
    Drove on to Hawarden out of Canterbury still in Hurunui District to luckily catch up with the Lovells.
    What a beautiful homestead they now call home. Reminded me of Meryl Streep of Out of Africa.......... I had a farm in Africa! Opening line .

    Just made it after dusk to Kaiapoi where Denise is parked up at nzmca Park.
    Looks a beauty here, so close to golf, cycle ways, shops and dog park.
    Happy days.
    And yet still no rain peeps.
    It did rain in Hanmer overnight, but we were asleep 😴 💤 don't count that.
