Robin Hood Bay.

*for people who dont care for waves this might be a blog entry to skip*

So after a surf deprived week we decided to try and tackle the goat track over the two mountains to Robinhood Bay, a tinny wee bay tucked away up behind a big wrapping headland. From the second summit we decided to stop and try and get 'that' photo of 'us with our van photo'. Although it took many tries and lots of posing-not all if it flattering we Finlay got one we were pleased with. After descended back down the goats path into the bay we were confronted with a lovely 2-3ft peak and glassy off shore. The only draw back being the all most vertical shingle beach you had to negotiate to get into the water and once on a wave the occasional back wash of a wave hitting your wave!












Christchurch Dunedin

So on our way North we stopped off at few places, Gore Capital of Fly Fishing and Country Music, Dunedin where it was creepy how much it was like Edinburgh even down to Skerryvore and Runrig Cds being in the shops, and on to Christchurch where we were shocked by the devastation. We also found Nz, steepest street and a really good farmers market in Dunedin.
