driving north out of christchurch, i could have been in northern california... golden hills, vineyards, fog, eucalyptus, pine, cows...if not for the abundance of sheep, the occasional dr. seuss tree, driving on the left with the pacific to my right and the sun in the northern sky.
the dolphin tour was all booked up and it looked like rain plus i thought i felt a cold/flu coming on, so decided to head inland and relax at the hotsprings. lovely except for the bloody sand flies. aggh. five days later and i still look like i have the chicken pox. but at least i have energy again.
i'm now on the west coast of the island chillin at some friends' place. beautiful sunset on the ocean. tomorrow, a day hike at arthur's pass on way back to chch. good ol' en-zed (nz). back to the u.s. in a few days.
