We headed on to Hokitika and on up to pancake rocks and the blow holes. Really cool seeing the sea surge through and the erosion is constant so it won't be there forever.

Headed further north on the west coast and ended up staying at a lovely campsite right on the coast called Gentle Annie's. Great place, lovely cakes and muffins and the sunsets were pretty impressive!

We took the trip to Karamea in my car as Laura's van wasn't feeeling to well and had ended up with a few hitchhikers of the furry variety! Massive beach at Karamea and very quiet. We carried on up to Oparara and walked to the stone arch which is huge and very impressive! Makes you feeel like an ant that could be squished at any second!

Came back to a tripped mouse trap so set it again and within 5 minutes it had gone off with his mate sniffing around beside him! Yuck!!!
