Friday 6th March 2009

Drove north to Kaikoura today - booked on a whale watch at 3.30. When we got there, they reported that the sea was very choppy and I and afraid I copped out, even though I had taken a Kaikoura Cracker - the local sea sickness pill!!

Fred took some pictures on the seashore while we were waiting for confirmation as to whether they would run the boat for the 3.30 sailing:


Fred would not go on his own, so we postponed it until 7.15 tomorrow morning - just enough time before we have to leave to drive 180kms to Picton for the 2.30pm sailing to Wellington, North Island.

We seem to be the only residents at our motel. - It is called The Fairways Lodge - annexed to Kaikoura Golf Course. Very nice accommodation but a good few kilometers outside of Kaikoura Centre. The day has been a bit grey - but warm.
