We are into our last day on our South Island tour…we are in Kaikoura where Jerry and Tamara are going on a dolphin swim along…I couldn’t image going on the ocean on a small boat to swim…but Jerry and Tamara are really looking forward to it…it is raining but it is a warm rain…we enjoyed our time in Dunedin…we spent time at the Larnach Castle which was very interesting…the drive there was enough to make me sick even with gravol…but the scenery is absolutely amazing here…it is hard to imagine that much beauty…changing beauty…as we have seen on the South Island…did some shopping in Dunedin and spent a couple evenings watching movies and just vegging…tired of always packing and moving.

We then drove to Christchurch and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Their downtown is absolutely amazing with the Canterbury University and all the buildings built in the late 1800’s…very beautiful…enjoyed our tram ride around the historical part of the city…we left our lights on the car and our battery was gone…the Zealand Automobile Association recognized our CAA and were given a boost with no cost…we arrived here last evening and it seems like the rain likes to follow us…Tamara has been cold as she is used to hot weather…Jerry and I have enjoyed the temperature…warm but cool…

It is hard to believe that we are heading into finishing our 3 weeks here in NZ…the time has flown…it will be hard to say goodbye to Tamara…it has been absolutely wonderful spending time with her…some great coffees together and browsing around the different shops and historical buildings…great time together
