We stopped off in Melbourne
for the day on the way to Christchurch. We only had a few hours but
managed to potter around the city and even squeeze in an AFL match!
A map of our route:
Christchurch- Kaikoura - Kaiteriteri - Punakaiki
We
loved all of the pop up shops and cafes in Christchurch. After the
earthquakes a few years ago, a lot of the buildings are now temporary.
Our favourite was the re-start shopping mall, where each shop was in a
shipping container! Kaikoura was a huge highlight of the trip as it was
our first stop in the van. We went to sleep on a spot on the beach,
surrounded by seals, and awoke to dolphins! Kaiteriteri was another
coastal location, as was Punakaki, where the pancake rocks and blowholes
were.
Franz Josef, Lake Matheson and a glacier ride over Franz Josef, Fox Glacier and Mount Cook!
