Day 2

Up early after a sleepless night in Christchurch ready for the next stage of my journey. I travelled to Kaiapoi where I stopped at the supermarket to stock up on water, fruit and a muffin. Off on the road trip to Kaikoura. Gorgeous drive - especially in and around Kaikoura. AMAZING lunch on the beach - seafood chowder and a very nice coffee. Great walk up the street and walk along the beach.

Back into my car and further up the coast I go. I arrived in Blenheim and toured around before deciding to travel on up to Picton. Amazing drive round Queen Charlotte Sound - with lots of stops for photos.
