And on me - the hat I bought in Nelson's market!
Finally, an easy day in the city - no hiking, no mud... So it's a perfect sunny day and we go to Nelson. We preplanned it to be on the weekend for the market - I lost my hat and I need to buy a new one! Look in the pictures, didn't I do well?
In Nelson we also visited their famous museum - 2 in 1 in fact. It's called the "wearable art" museum, plus a collection of collectible cars. The wearable art is really impressive - works that are only by chance called "clothes" - well, they are worn my manequins, but they are pieces of art. They do not allow camera inside unfortunately so I can't share the sights. The cars were nice, I always like these stuff.

In the evening, again with Angie and Gordon in the HIT, I made a chocolate cake! I promised that to Erez maybe 2 weeks ago, Sheli sent me a great very easy recipe, and the result was the best. We shared with the hosts and the other guests, and it all disappeared in the same night...
