Beachside Cottages and Pancake Rocks

Last night we stayed in the cutest little beachside motel and a few girls and me had a little cottage. It was so comfy and cozy. It had heating pads under the sheets and kept me really warm. We made salad and pasta and it was delicious. I went to bed early and slept wonderfully!

Today, we left the cottages and headed for the Pancake Rocks aka Punaikaki. It was so amazing to see the beach and then these huge rocks just sprout up from out of the water. After that we had some lunch and we have pretty much been on the bus since then. Lots of traveling when we only stay one night at these places.

I have reserved the jacuzzi from 5-6 and I am going to go relax and enjoy myself. We are cooking spaghetti a little bit later. Tomorrow we head on to Motueka and on Wednesday we will be see kayaking. Then on to Kaikoura for swimming with the dolphins. Then it's back to Christchurch and the trip is almost over! Then my birthday and Vegas! :)

  3. Tral,

    Sounds like you've had a really good week. How in the HECK are you going to swim with dolphins in the cold??!!? Hopefully it is indoor because I think otherwise you would need a wetsuit.

    Can you believe in 2 weeks you will be 21?!!? Really exciting. Enjoy the rest of the trip!!

    I'm so glad you are having fun. Did they like your salad? I'm sure they did.

    Swimming with dolphins and kayaking sounds like it will be a blast! I hope you have a fantastic time and be careful.

    Still waiting for your birthday list...:)

    Angel and I are all alone. We miss everyone.
