In the morning we woke up early in order to go kayaking. We arrived early to the kayaking place so a couple of us walked on the beach, watching the sunset, to fill the time. It was spectacular!
8:00 came around and it was a great morning with the sun out and the water was perfectly still. We kayaked on inlet streams of the ocean with snow capped mountain by our side. A rare bird lives in the area (there are only about 150 left in New Zealand) and we happened to see a bunch of them. Our guide said we were VERY lucky to see so many!
We got back into the car and drove to the town of Hokitika where I unfortunatly had my ATM eaten by the machine...! It was a cute little town but I was frustrated at the bank that was closed on Saturday. After we continued onto our Franz Joseph hostal. We were going to visit the Franz Joseph glacier but the weather wasn't great so we did it the next day instead. Chilled at the hostal and did some internet! Bed.
