Claire's adventures
after watching trash tv on sun - i am telling u that is the best channel in the world we went and explored wellington had a look in the museum which was huge, did the cable car and of course what girls do best a bit of shopping. got the ferry over to the south island but wasn't until 3 in morning so was well shattered. headed down to Abel Tasman which is lush, didn't really do much on the first day cause we were all exhausted but booked to do some kayacking which i was a bit apprehensive about as u all know my coordination skills are not the best.
wow absolutely loved kayacking it was brill and luckily u could do it 2 man ones so ceri unfortunately got stuck with me. the sun was out and i was feeling up for it and to my surprise i really enjoyed it. not sure if i was doing it right but we were moving and in the right direction so all good. ceri was the steerer and i was navigator, i only missed one rock so thought i did pretty well. the veiws were so nice lots of little beaches and stuff.
our next stop was kaikoura and this is where i am writing my little journal. well because ceri has done most of the driving i though right i am going to have a go. seriously when i got going my legging was shaking a treat but to my surprise i thought i was ok and am pretty proud of myself the only thing i found a bit tricky was the indicator as it is on the other side so every time i went to indicate i turned on the wind screen wipers (ceri kept doing it too). honestly guys u would have been impressed (not blowing my own trumpet) and then it happened ..... no i didn't crash as i looked in my back mirror and i saw a police car and naturally u start to panick, jokingly i said to ceri god i hope he doesn't pull me over and then he started flashing i was sh**ting it and thought he was going to over take and go off but no he followed and i had to pull in i just went bright red and started sweating (exageratting a little but just creating the mood) so looking really guilty i wound down the window and he did not look happyand then he said the reason i pulled u over was because of one of the passengers. oh my god u don't know how relieved i was. apparently he couldn't see anna's seat belt so he had to come and check she was wearing it but just not properly so he gave her a bit of a lecture checked my driving licsence and van and then told us to have a nice day. i was terrified then to pull out with him watching me but it was ok and i finally managed to calm down and get to our destination.
