Up at 7am, mostly did my packing
Met Chris for brekkie so he could stalk asian girl
Went to airport to drop off hire car
Load map out and tried to plan vague itinerary.
Got window seat on - beautiful views of Queenstown
mountains poking out through the clouds
screaming babies of course
We landed in Christchurch and took a cab to the camper hire place.
The driver managed to offend Dad somehow
The girls at the hire place were very friendly and showed us the intimate details of the vehicle before we creakily set off. It was just me in the back, rescuing items as they were thrown around - clearly some work to be done here to improve this! They soon settled into at stable state on the floor - Dad's laptop and the 'multimedia centre' included.
A couple of hours later we were in Kaikoura, I had a snooze on the way. First impresions of van - big but not big enough! Went to supermarket - D&L bought loads of convenience stuff, crisps and biscuits. Jim and I put together a cheap chicken and pasta meal with some token spinach.
Got to the site - $20 per night. Dinner and little bad wine. Zonked out.
