Today we took the ferry from Wellington to Picton on South Island. A three and a half hour crossing - it was very calm because there is no wind due to the drizzly weather. As we left North Island on a Danish ferry (a bit lost!), Wellington was swallowed in the mist. There was excitement, however, when several killler whales swam around and under the vessel.

Arrived in Picton and met by B&B owner Glenys who is a huge fan of Edinburgh and whose husband, Gary, plays the bagpipes. We were piped in for breakfast - I think it was Scotland the brave!
Of course we had to test out the local brew (Sauvignon Blanc) aptly named 'First Landing' as this is near where Cook Landed.
