Fast changes

We traveled to Invercargill by coach about a two and one half hour drive and went to the Southland Museum. We had lunch there. Then we went to the airport and processed our luggage. We had to wait about 45 minutes more. The plane was delayed due to bad weather.
We loaded onto a Turboprop and flew to Christchurch. We met Michael Goldschmidt. quickly drop off the luggage at the hotel and then went to Riccarton House and Bush(Forest). We were given a tour of the house and grounds - The beautiffly built estate of the Dean family who were early Europen settlers of the province of Canterbury. Then we had dinner and went to bed exhausted in a new place. Our room here, after the "town house" at Te Anau, leaves a lot to be desired but the shower is hot and the sheets are clean. And we move on again soon.
