I woke up at 5:30 with a view to climbing the hills above Picton to view the sunrise. The sight of sheets of rain beating down on the window pane lead me to retreat to the warmth of my bed, where I slept for a few more hours.

The weather in Nelson was no better, so rather than explore the town in terms of attractions Emer (a girl I met at the hostel in Picton) and I went out for a swift half, which turned into a swift many more than a half... which wasn't really that swift either! Theres always tomorrow for the sights...

Im Alex. 22 and counting, just about to embark on 5 months of travelling before starting my first proper post graduation job. Im into my adventure sports - climbing, biking, skiing, diving, sailing, kayaking but this trip is probably going to be more about culture than sport... although I could be swayed! I love cooking (and eating!) and playing the guitar, seeing live music, and drinking alcohol.... full info

It's sounds like the NZ weather is living up to it's billing. I hope the bars are plentiful!

Alex what are you doing to the weather on your trip? The wetter you're getting on the outside the wetter you seem to be getting on the inside.
