Got to the last stop on our NZ tour and are in Kaikoura.

We were hoping to go whalewatching but the whales were too far out and the sea too rough. We could go tomorrow 7.15 but that means 3 hours on a boat, 3 hours in the car and then 3 more in the plane to Sydney. Instead we went for a tramp as they say, along the beach, first we came across a fresh crayfish stand – where they were so nice explaining what crayfish was and so we just had to taste the lobsterlike fritters then on to bump into some seals hiding in the seaweed – frightened John to death. It’s a colony and they we took some pix and did some sketching. Just as good as whales really – and some good exercise with it. Took us 4 hours. Now John’s doing the ironing – its doesnt take a lot to keep him happy!!
