Going to Kaikoura

I used my free pass bus from Nelson to Kaikooura my new destination . The journey took some 5 hours as we had a change of bus in Blenheim the centre of the Malborough country , the NZ gourmet province . Striking beauty all around. After the road winding up and down the forest hills we got to the biggest wine growing region where is produced the famous Sauvignon Blanc . Passing in front of the Montana Wineries brought me back in Clifden’s Supervalue where so often this brand is promoted .

At Kaikoura I found the loveliest backpacker in a pretty garden with a view on the sea and was lucky enough to have a pretty single room en suite ..and to meet this lovely canadian Diana
