We left Invercargill and headed over to Bluff the rain and wind was really bad maybe the worst wind I have ever been in on a bike but it can't be a tour of NZ unless we go to both ends of both islands. We didn't sick around to take any photos because the camera would have been destroyed from the rain. And we have plenty from last time we were there.
Headed to the Catlin's the rain still persisted down but we got to the place we were going to stay at and when we arrived the rain eased a bit, we hiked down to see some water falls, when we got there some jagoff was standing in the middle with a tripod and camera waiting for the perfect pitcure, I waited for a while then got impatient and told him to move so I could take a few photos without him in it needless to say he moved pretty smartly when he saw I wasn't messing with him and then some kids tried to get up and I enlighten them as well. I got the photos people free. We had a nice dinner and a few drinks at the Whistling Frog Cafe, we went back to our cabin and when we woke it was raining again.GRRRR
We headed to Oamaru with out stopping because it was terrible weather. Going through Dunedin the rain got real bad and as we were going up the big hill on the way out I moved out into a passing lane to overtake a slow moving truck there was a roadworks with loose gravel all over the road and no signage to alert me I thought maybe I missed the sign but Kym didn't see any either. On state hi-way one in the pouring rain in the fast lane with car speeding up behind me ! I was shitting bricks it made the trip to Bluff seem tame !
Anyway we made to Oamaru safely and are going to spent a few days here with one of Kymbo old mates from back in the day and her husband and kiddies. we head north on sunday.
