We left Nelson yesterday after having been to the geographic centre of NZ. This involved scampering up a hill and watching lots of kids having their picture taken by a Glaswegian!!!!!
Then we left Nelson for Kaikoura arriving in the afternoon and pitching the tent.
This morning we got up at silly O-clock (5am, yes, all you students it does exist)to go see some dolphins. We were not disappointed!
The Dusky dolphins were not shy and played with about a dozen humans squeezed into black skins and flapping about ineptly, making strange babbling noises. Honestly we are the most intelligent animal!
Celine and I watched from the deck. Explanation - Celine had already swum with the dolphins, and I figured if I snorkelled I'd have a coughing fit and scare all the dolphins away or drown, neither good.
But we got some amazing shots which you can now enjoy..............
