Thursday 11th May
Rest day at last. We were both so exhausted, neither of us woke until 8.30am. We both had breakfast in bed and I also had lunch in bed. Just what the doctor ordered as I was absolutely wrecked. I just read and did some blogging. It was a little slice of heaven.

Just as I thought we were staying in all day, DB said. Do you want to go for a drive. So much for a full rest day. So off we went for a drive to Godley Head Park and Lyttleton Port. It was very pretty. As we were driving around the mountain (the roads were just like on Corsica – narrow, winding, blind corners and drop of about 200m) the fog came in very quickly, we were rushing against it to catch a couple of photos. It was lovely. We saw a beautiful sunset. We then drove to Lyttleton Port which was exactly that, an industrial port, lots of logged timber to be transported.

Then on the way home we stopped to get some provisions for tomorrow’s hike. Our last adventure before we head home on Sunday. We are all packed ready to go early tomorrow morning. Yay!!
