Trailor on Tour
Today Nic was up very early as she had to be at the train station for 0750 to get her bus to Christchurch. Being the nice person that I am I walked her to the bus and helped carry a bag!!
Then back to the hotel for me, before heading back to Queenstown via Starbucks. Who knows if I'll see one before Canada now, although they were out of vanilla and caramel syrup, my 2 favourites.
The drive back was fairly uneventful, although I was having trouble keeping my eyes open at one point and so stopped by the side of the road, put the seat back down, locked the doors and snoozed for about 20 minutes.
From then on I had to listen to my tape a few more times, singing at the top of my voice to stay awake. Once in town I dropped by the Hippo Lodge and picked up my post. The very, very nice man from the internet cafe in Napier had posted a CD of some of my lost pictures on to me. Next stop Pinewood Lodge, where I had booked in.
Having cleared out the car I drove it into the town centre and dropped it back at the rental place, stopping en route at the post office to send some more of my accumulated junk home. I found an internet place and spent 2 hours loading my photos before going to have dinner. I ended up in quite a nice place overlooking the harbour and felt a bit underdressed, not to mention getting strange looks because - heaven forbid - I was alone!! Even single people have to eat you know!!
It was then back to the internet until they closed at 2300 and back to bed, ready for my 0800 pick up to get to the airport. Three flights tomorrow - Queenstown to Christchurch to Auckland to Nadi in Fiji. S xx
