Setting out for our kayaking day on the Abel TasmanGot up early and was relieved to not have fallen out of the top bunk in my dorm so it's a good day so far! Headed to the south island via a ferry. This was the 'gourmet' of ferries, it was an incredible ship with a bar, movie theatres and lounger chairs which I enjoyed using as we passed the most beautiful scenery.
Once on the south island our Magic Bus picked us up and we stopped off at a winery to do some wine tasting. Not sure about this place, good wine but they said only 3 countries they couldn't ship to and one being Canada. When I asked why the lady told me apparently there is a drinking problem in Canada and our government won't allow personal shipping of alcohol into the country unless you have a signed note from a DA stating that you are of sound mind and body! I think maybe she drinks too much wine herself to make up that story!
Spent a few nights in Nelson and went out to the Abel Tasman National Park for a day of kayaking. Chilly weather but with spray skirts and jackets we were plenty warm and had a great day of kayaking, seal watching, a beach picnic and some beach combing.
