#kaikoura

The rest of the day was spent driving to Akaroa - I really didn't stop much because I wanted to get there before it got too dark, and I just barely made it before the sun set. On my way back to Christchurch on Thursday, I should have plenty of time for scenic stops! I was bummed though, because if there had been a safe pull-off spot, I would absolutely have stopped for a photo at the top of the hill before descending to Akaroa. The full moon with a bit of a hazy pink background and slight cloud cover over the bottom of the moon? Gorgeous. I did pull over into a picnic area, but it had no view down the hill! Too many tall trees. So you have no photos from after I left Kaikōura for today. You'll have to wait until tomorrow! Hopefully the weather holds out - potential for rain tomorrow, unfortunately.
