Monday 15/08

Woke at 9am - the fact that my alarm was set for 7 indicates that the earplugs may be working better than expected.  I asked "was it cold last night" and immediately got stories from all directions of the most arctic night in living memory.  Man up everyone!

Having issued the "2 hour late" call to the team, it took a full 34 minutes to get moving.  I dutifully refrained from emptying my bladder to save vital seconds, only to have to wait for Jim to pluck his eyebrows and Dad to apply his fake tan. 

Pancake rocks & blow holes at Punakaiki
Internet cafe - booked flights back from Wellington
Drove to seal colony at Tauranga Bay
Parked in site at Westport.
Made lamb and pasta in site kitchen and watched masterchef equivalent
Discussed the pros and cons of going out.  Decided it was too cold and we were too lazy.
