Today we left Hanmer Springs, our aim was to get to Karamea but it rained nearly all the way and because the water level was touching the bottom of the bridge that leads into Karamea and rising we chose to go South to Punakaiki. There we saw a kiwi bird and the pancake rocks and it was so amazing, the only bad part: we can't eat them (the pancakes). We saw a natural blowhole and a natural carving of different animals. We decided to go to Greymouth since it will be easier to go to the train station and go to Christchurch on the train on Saturday.

P.S. my turn to sleep on the bed above the drivers seat tonight.
