We left Blenheim after a morning walking in the Withers Hills Farm area. Everything was very very dry and the paths to the top of the hills were closed due to the fire risk.
We then travelled to Waiau a little town in the hills which was accessed by a lovely road passing through beautiful countryside. The road was very steep and windy for most of the journey, which made for slow driving, at times a 15km speed limit.
This is a rest stop on our way to the thermal Spa at Hanmer Springs.Read more
Traveler It all sounds truly wonderful!

Best day yet. Still no rain yet loved driving down the Kaikoura coast rd.
Stopped for photo shoot with seals and seal pups. It's the season .
Stunning drive through coast road and then turned off to gorgeous variable scenery from controlled burn offs to farmland and autumn calleys and mountains.
Parked up tonight with a full moon and a great night in local pub at Waiau stunning spot with local hospitality.
We loved it. 😍Read more
