I have to speed things up here, because Jenn is getting tired of waiting for me.
Today we drove down to the end of Banks Peninsula to see the charming French town of Akaroa. We actually didn't make it all the way into town, but saw nice views of it from ahigh (?). We took a nice walk through the trees and up on to the rolling hills overlooking the harbor and the town.
A foggy, cooler day today, which was a relief as our hike was a bit of a steep hill.
Not wanting to go back the way we came, we made a loop of our hike, crossing through some pastures, scaling barb-wired fences, scaring sheep, and playing with cows. It all went off without a hitch until we had to go down the steep embankment to the road, where Jenn ran into a bit of difficulty on the slippery grass:
We will part with our dear friends tomorrow as we continue south to Dunedin tomorrow.
Hope all is well with everyone at home! Our thoughts are with you all!!
