The morning clouds lingered in the sky as the sun was just peaked over the hills as we left Akaroa this morning. It looked like it was going to be another glorious day.  A cruise ship had sailed into the harbour and was offloading passengers for a day in the bays.  I was more than a tiny bit jealous since I hadn’t really had enough of this beguiling place.  I’ll be back I’m sure.  Perhaps when things are not quite so wobbly underfoot.

At least I have a few hundred photographs to remind me of the few glorious days we’ve spent down south. This time I’m really, not really I mean it, determined to get some prints for the walls of this rather special place.
