The journey down to Greymouth was broken up by some pretty good stops! First was Cape Foulwind, home to a seal colony which was very exciting! The seals were flapping around the rocks and diving into the sea and so after many photos we made our way back down the track only to be greeted by a massive male seal who also thought it would be a good idea to use the track!! Elin was ever so slightly petrified of the huge thing as it kept lunging forward but after some negotiation we managed to safely pass it amazed at having got so close! Next stop were the Pancake Rocks, which stacked like pancakes, rose out from the sea creating blowholes! We walked round and took yet more pictures of the amazing scenery before heading back on the bus and into Greymouth! That evening we all decided to go to the beach to watch the sunset with a few beers before heading back to the hostel to play pool!
