Yes kayak...no kayak...

...it's too cold! Wind, rain and cold convinced us not to kayaking today, but to do a cruise...ehmm.. yes...cute, but with this "no beach" weather we didn't enjoy very much the view. Now we're back to the hotel and in a few minutes we're going to Nelson "city" to take a white chocolate mocha at STARBUCKS!!!

Not a great day, but, at least, we can rest...we need that!

Tomorrow will be an "on the road" day...for all day...mpf

In Nelson

Ok, let's talk about the "Cows Problem" ... in 2005 there were only sheeps in this country. Now I can see only cows and a sheep sometime... so.. the cows stole the job to the sheeps!??!!!?
Today we woke up at 5.30 A.M. (arghhhh) and we traveled to the second island with the ferry. New bus, new driver, go on the road...and still... cows!!!! Some sheeps ... cows... horse.. WHAT FLOCK HAPPENS!?
Anyway, we met The One Ring Creator at the WOW Museum, drank some wine, saw some old cars and "goosebump style" dresses, returned to the hotel, had dinner with Garlic Prawn noodles from Noodle Canteen!
