Slept at Christchurch airport the night before our flight. We had to check in at 4 so didnt see the point in booking a nights accomodation! It was rather uncomfortable..a new experience though. In case its not clear I decided to change my flights from Melbourne and fly into Brisbane instead. Ruben and Lenneke the Dutch couple I was working with in Christchurch happened to be flying the same day so we thought it would be cool to travel the East coast together! Fli...

We saw some young chicks, that were already huge, but no adults as they were out at sea. The Otago Penisular is beautiful though just like a little fishing village, very sweet and very unspoilt!
