We are travelling north to Picton where we will stay the night before taking the Interislander Ferry to Wellington.

We drive along the coastal road past Kaikoura, where the mountains meet the sea. The journey is long but the view is truly splendid and at some parts the waves actually come crashing very close to the road.

We reach our motel in Picton in the evening. This is the only motel we have stayed in which has a jacuzzi in the bathroom and the kids had a fun time splashing in the tub.

First time I've seen an apple tree!
