We headed to Hanmer Springs and Kaikoura for the weekend for a relaxing weekend. Started of going to Hanmer Springs and sitting in the hot spings there. They have a bunch of swimming pools built up there and filled with the heated sping water. It's pretty nice with various pools at different temperatures but it was a little crouded when we were there. It is in a small little town in the mountains which is pretty cool though. From there we headed off to Kaikoura and walked along a pebble beach and then walked out to a seal collony and took pictures until it started to rain and we headed back home. Kaikoura is a great place to relax near the beach or go surfing if I knew how to surf. Someday maybe.
