Welcome back Sun and Summer on the South Island
... It was a beautiful day, so different to the fogginess that had been blocking the views we would have had from the North Island. Maybe thats why Brits can be so grumpy, we don't get enough sunshine! On the way down, we took the advice of the guy from earlier and went for a swim in the river. It wasn't one of our best ideas; or we hadn't chosen the most ideal location for it. The floor of the river was really shallow, and covered in this greeny moss ...
Campervan swap then back to Dovedale
... were completing the paperwork we overheard the answer to a question – no they didn’t provide any linen with their vans! Before we set off on our trip we sold our sheets and quilt cover. The lady in the office said we could take our pick from the pile of bedding over in a cabinet. We had no choice but to get some pillows, 2 thin duvets and extra blanket and a sheet (which was a hospital sheet!). The sheet had been washed, but we aren’t sure ...

This is always an excellent chat up line: "oh! we both use Nikons, if you like you can use mine cos it's bigger!" (if you are a Nikon user, you will know what I meant) She readily agreed and we ...
Bargain hunting
... in the kitchen.
Then we headed to The Warehouse which is a bit like a Matalan. Here we got a duvet cover for $12 and a blanket for $10 and a wok for $20.
We still need a few things, but think we'll be OK for a week or so.
We did get a call from our friend Aika who has decided to pick apples today. we did have the choice of joining him, but we thought it would have been counter productive as we were knackered and had stuff to ...
