Welcome to the South Island

The Ferry crossing was uneventful and we docked on time.

We watched the process from up on deck and could see this real old timer being loaded onto a truck to be taken somewhere special (I hope).

The dogs seemed to have had a good trip and aside from being happy and over the top excited to see us (in Beau’s case), all was well. We missed seeing Dianne and Gary as they were parked in the secure area ready to board, so unfortunately the timing was a bit off. We found a nice park down by the marina and took the boys for a walk and had some lunch, then proceeded on to a place called Koromiko.

Picton harbour

Koromiko is about 20 minutes outside of Picton and is a dedicated Park over Property and a delightful place – just a large open paddock near the golf course. The bird song from there was beautiful and all the people we met very friendly.

Tomorrow we head to Nelson, as our fridge has started playing up again – temperature at 10 degrees C instead of 4, and we were lucky that Nelson Motorhomes agreed to have a look at it. In the meantime we will find a place to park close to them, and arrange to see my ex work colleague from Homecare Medical, Isobel.
