23rd- 24th January 2012

We woke up at silly o'clock to get the ferry from Wellington to Picton, where we would get back onto the stray bus. Not sure how long the ferry was as I slept for most of it, although I did get a few pictures of the journey. We arrived in Picton hoped on the bus and continued to Abel Tasman National Park in Mararhau via Nelson. We stopped off in Nelson for a quick supermarket stop. That evening we cooked and played a good game or ring of fire and other drinking games. That morning we woke up Nat and I headed to one of the private beaches in the national park, later we were joined by Mark and Carly. I went for a swim but it was freezing. That evening we headed to a burger van called Fat Tui - which apparently is rival to Fergburger. It was very very good - so you will have to wait and see if it was better than Fergburger when I write about Queenstown. That evening was an earlyish night and we had another early start.
