I left drizzly Greymouth thinking that my run of good weather was over to arrive in Hamner Springs in glorious sunshine and blue skies! It was gorgeous and made the mountains around look even more spectacular.
My hostel I am staying in is amazing, it is like a log cabin with a pet cat called pepper. There is a log fire that is lit with a comfy lounge, clean kitchen and bathroom to die for back home! My room comes with a hot waterbottle which will be a godsend tonight! By far one of the best places I have stayed in yet!
This afternoon I decided it was high time I did a long run so I did a 18km run which didnt go too well as my knee decided to play up. Never mind, the shower afterwards was amazing. Then I thought it would be a bright idea to go and walk up Conical Hill, as the hostel owner said the veiw from the top is spectacular.
Well the walk up to the top was Dad's idea of a gentle incline. Needed an iron lung at the top, but the view was amazing. I had to remind myself on the way up after seeing an old man with a walking stickand 2 tiny children coming down that if they could do it I could.
Going to enjoy my free icecream for pudding and curl up with my book infront of the fire this evening. I am sure I will be paying tomorrow for my run tomorrow but that is what the hot pools are for!
