We arrived into Picton on the south island at around 12 pm and headed straight to Nelson for the night. We were both still feeling worse for wear even after a little sleep on the ferry so we treated ourselves to a thai green curry from the pub restaurant at the english owned hostel/pub we stayed at. it was mint! and sorted us right out. We chilled with a few dvds that night and met a group of girls from kent who were our new friends for the next few days. We left...
