Sunday 25th Nov Time to check out to catch the coach to Kaikoura at 11:30am. We left in plenty of time due to carrying too many bags to the bus stop which was at least 10 mins walk away(!) We had 1 hour to spare so we just waited on the bench, enjoying the sun! The coach arrived and it was basic, comparing to the luxury feeling that we had on Kiwi Experience. Luckily for us, we managed to have the seats to ourselves so Daniel can stretch his injured knee acr...

Saturday 24th Nov As we didn't get to bed till late, we were hoping to have a lie in which we needed it after too many early mornings. Unfortunately we were next to the building work which were making alot of noises at 8am. You may wonder how we woke up by that, especially with our deafness.

Unfortunately it meant more money to spend. Health is obviously more important so it have to be done. Daniel's knee haven't improved overnight so the doctor reckoned that he needed Physiotherapy. He is hoping that it would sort him out after this session. We went strai...

Wednesday 21st Nov Mad Dog River Boarding time! As it didn't start till 12.45pm, we made the most of the lie in, catching up with our beauty sleep! We decided to go on the internet elsewhere as we found a cheapest one in town to waste our waiting time for our activity to start. After reading up more on the activity, we were starting to regret to book it as we didn't realise that there would be alot of instructions given by the guides during the boarding. we were...
