Today I rolled to Kaikora with a new bus driver named Rich. The drive to Kaikora wasn't too bad and we got in around lunch time. Along the way we stopped and saw some seals and one of the most spectacular views I have seen in New Zealand. At the view point we managed to leave some people behind which was quite entertaining.
In other going to Kaikora news I met a girl from the Yukon on the bus which was a new location in Canada to meet someone from. In addition to this I had another pie and a bottle of Coke for breakfast. When we finally got into Kaikora and checked into the hostel I decided to head into town to the butcher to get some sausages for lunch. I got some lamb sausages and had them with cheese and sweet thai chili sauce.
When I got back to the hostel I realized Simon who I had met earlier in my trip was in Kaikora as well and in my room. I shared some lamb sausages with him for lunch. I didnt do a lot during the afternoon as there wasnt much to do in Kaikora. I watched Gladiator (a movie I have never seen from start to finish) and went to some burger place with Simon for dinner.
After dinner a group of us rolled into town and shot some pool and participated in a Pub Quiz with the most entertaining looked man I have ever seen. He was an older Maori guy very short with snow white hair and big glasses. The quiz went well and everyone had a good time. My team came in 3rd but there was a four way tie for first. Good times. We are off to Wellington tomorrow on the Interislander Ferry. I am looking forward to getting back to Wellington.
