Day 7 - a day that starts and ends in the same place

---

What a weird sensation to not be on a train. For the first time since we left, we are spending a whole day in one place. The town seems a little sleepy after last night's Ultimate Fighting Challenge excitement, so we head to Cowpuccino for breakfast (it's on Cow St or something). A quiet day wandering the streets and preparing for tomorrow's ferry ride. A nice couple in our hostel lent us their bikes and pointed us in the direction of some eagles. There were about a dozen of them soaring around, quite an amazing sight. But not quite the best sight of the day - that has to be the Tsunami warning. Hard to tell if it's just a symptom of a litigious age, or whether it could save lives; the advice to head to higher ground is not much use next to a sheer cliff face.

Sunday finishes on a stressful note. Watching sunset over the harbour drinking Molson Canadian on the terrace. Certainly feeling those Monday morning Blues approaching.
