New Zealand Sabbatical

Last weekend we flew to Nelson, New Zealand for a long weekend and were met with 6-7 inches of non-stop rain. We saw the downtown river swell out of its bank and carry some mighty tree branches downstream. This curtailed our plans but we were still able to see half of the sites and do half of the activities we had planned (thus the title-Half Nelson). We had many good meals as great restaurants were within a short walk. Traveling to and fro by domestic airlines was a cinch and reminded us of days before there were any security checks. Our next flight in 2 days won’t be as easy as we head home with hopes of arriving just before midnight Saturday.

Wish us safe travels and pump us with Kiwi questions when we see you. Thanks for following along on our southern hemisphere adventure.
