Picton & Kaikoura & Christchurch

hello again friends!! I"m now in christchurch which is the farthest south i've ever been in the world!! yay for me.so continuing my 2wb (2 week break) adventures...

Picton...
we took the ferry from wellington to picton on tuesday and we met up with the boys again in Picton. that night me, rob, david , belinda and yumi all went to a free concert in a small cafe in Picton. that was SO nice because it wasn't anything too touristy and it was just a nice relaxing atmosphere

Kaikoura.,...
we ended up staying there for 2 days and the first day we sadly said bye to the boys because they had mine and Ray's car and they were heading in a different direction that us girls had planned, and that was cool too. so we said bye to them. Somehow us girls managed to find a small country cottage to stay at which was really sweet and relatively cheap too and that's always a good thing too. the scenery in Kaikoura is absolutely amazing because you can see snow capped mountains and then the ocean...all at the same time. it was definately mind boggling for a small town Saskatchewan girl like me :) but don't worry..i took heaps of pictures!! the next day that we were in Kaikoura me and my friend Cat ended up going on a boat tour of the coast. We also saw Hector's dolphins (the smallest dolphins in the world), albatrosses, fur seals, and a blue penguin. It was totally cool to see dolphins, they even came right up to the boat and i got some really pics of them too :)

oh and for the record...it may sound like me and David are "dating" but we're not. we just have a really awesome friendship where we can bug each other yet still have a serious conversation once in a while too. So if anyone thought we were "dating" i hate to break it to ya, but we're not...sorry for the confusion. And don't worry, if anything ever did happen (between me and any guy) I'll let you guys know :)

Christchurch....
this is my current position. us girls were thinking about giong the the aquarium today and maybe even seeing a kiwi bird if we get the chance too..

but ya i gtg. love nad miss you all! e-mail soon okay? bye!
