Back to Wellington

Hey, we picked up the computer at the shop and it is all repaired. Francois' camera as well is now dust free, somehow some dust got on the sensor and many of the pictures had spots on them, nothing that cant be touched up in photoshop.

We are now back in Wellington visiting with our Rose, tonight we plan on a nice salmon supper at home as we are leaving tomorrow morning to travel to Kaikoura. We board the ferry at 8:30am for a 3 hour tour to Picton.

Kaikoura is situated midway between Christchurch and Picton on the rugged east coast of New Zealand's South Island, and is overlooked by majestic mountains, which are snow-capped for many months of the year.

This unique combination of ocean and mountains offers stunning coastal alpine scenery and a host of eco-tourism oriented activities, including Whale watching, Dolphin swimming, walks, and hopefully lots of wine drinking....

The beach house we are renting has wireless internet so stay tuned for further updates.

Thanks Megan and Ryan for checking in on Mao so often, I so appreciate it. I miss my kitty.
