Kaikoura

Today it's rainy and cold, so I figured why not update the blog! I left Nelson yesterday, to my dismay. I had such a good time there, and met some really great people, including Andrew, who is from Ovid, NY, who's been to Burlington many times! Today I'm in Kaikoura, where I was supposed to do a whale watch but it was called off due to weather, so I'm doing it tomorrow. I'm here for two more nights then it's off to Christchurch for a few nights, followed by Greymouth, which I am getting to via transalpine, one of the 'world's geatest train journeys' so I've heard.
