On the Sunday we arrived in Kaikoura and booked into our accomadation! Me Jack and Dom had decided that we were going to do a bit of fishing so got our driver to book something up for us. We got picked up about 1 by some bloke whose name i've now forgot and the first thing he told us that the other bloke who would be on the boat had no fingers or thumb on one hand and had a wooden leg as he'd been attacked by a shark when he was 17!

After so long in Queenstown it was a relief to actually leave the place. We got on the bus at 8 in the morning and set off on an eight hour drive to Christchurch. As you can probably guess most of the journey was spent in the land of nod and when we got to Christchurch we didn't really want to do a lot so we just had something to eat and chilled out in our room!

This was pretty cool as the water pushed up against the rocks, it forced its way through the little holes which lead...

We didn't really do much last on the drive down to Wanaka, partly because the weather was raining so we couldn't stop off and do to much! We went to Lake Matheson which was pretty cool and drove acorss the bridge at the gates of haast! When we got to Wanaka a group of us went down to the park and had a game of touch rugby which was a good laugh but it bought back all the aches of the climbing and kayaking so we wern't walking to well after!! On the night I went f...
