After a quick dip in the Tasman Sea by a few of our crazy crew, we made our way back to Lincoln via Reefton (famous for being the first city in the southern hemisphere with electric lights) and the St. James Walkway (complete with “Elfin Forest” covered in snow) at Lewis Pass.
We all enjoyed the lush green rainforest of the West Coast filled with flax, cabbage trees, black tree ferns, unfurling korus, and Nikau palms, and are looking forward to a weekend off to explore on our own. Our students are headed (en mass) down to Queenstown on Friday. Why they did not want to go to the Dunedin Chocolate Festival this weekend instead is beyond me!
Safe and happy travels, Meryl : )
