Just a few days to go. Sue has almost shaken off her winter cold but left her tired. I am OK now and just hoping to avoid a re- occurrence. My packing practice managed just under 13K, Sue’s is a bit nearer our aim for max 20k each.

I am sure there will be a bit off juggling to go yet.  Paul and Frances, our neighbours who inspired us to take this particular trip have given us a few more tips. I am now taking a fleece as the nights in South Island can be rather cool even in summer.

I have booked us in to a chalet for our first night in Christchurch so we can get a descent sleep before we set off in the camper van for Mt Cook. I have also booked into the Glentanner site at Mt Cook  and also a couple of nights at Milford Sound. Other than that we will book as we go to give us flexibility.
