Toad Hall

On the way to Abel Tasman, I spotted something familiar, so I snapped a pic on the way back.

Earthquake!

So we didn't feel a thing. We left Wellington and flew to Queenstown before the earthquake. We saw some minor road and building damage in our travels but never felt a tremor.

Later in the trip we saw the USS Sampson which was in NZ for the 75th anniversary of their navy but was diverted for earthquake relief. She was the first US boat to visit since the banning of nukes from New Zealand.

Milford Sound

Milford Sound was the most spectacular place on the itinerary. We had a guided kayak paddle of about 3hours.
