We finally got a car delivered to our hotel. It's actually an 8 seater van but we will be heading for Queenstown in it so it was at a cheaper rate as they needed it taken back. We headed out for the beachside suburb of New Brighton. We had lunch in a little place called 'Salt on the Pier'. We were …

We rijden om 11:20 uur weer weg en zijn om 12:00 uur terug in Greymouth, ondanks dat we onderweg een keer gestopt zijn bij een View Point. We tanken de huurauto voor de laatste keer vol en gaan dan op zoek naar het treinstation en het Budget Depot. Als we een I-site zien ga ik naar binnen om “dir…

Christchurch is one of the most beautiful cities in New Zealand, certainly it is the largest city in the South Island.
The city is built along the lovely Avon River, a wonderful asset to the city, with its willow lined banks and fresh open water ways used by many for punt rides and canooing.

In the morning I went to 'Adventure Centre'. I saw this company in a travelbook about chirstchurch, so I could get some information where to go.

The turtle is an interesting metaphor for the traveller. When you wander around with all your worldly possessions stuck to your back you learn very quickly what is valuable and what is not. You proudly display the national flag and other assorted drawings you inscribed onto the rain ‘shell’ of …
