Self Drive South New Zealand: Day 7 and 8 - Dunedin - Timaru - Christchurch

17 and 18 August 2011

All set and ready for the super looooong journey. Eleven hours ride, 650km for NZ 77 or RM 200 . The coach depart sharp at 8.00 am and will only start moving when you buckle your seat belt :)

Instead of the original plan, which heading up to Wanaka - Fox Glacier - Greymouth, we are now heading further down to Dunedin and Timaru. This is what i have missed : The Glacier Walk and The TranzAlpine train , not forgetting the Milford Cruise. Sigh :( But I'm grateful be home safely :)


Original Plan


Coach Ride


Ready as ever to depart


Leaving Te Anau







Spot the rainbow :)













Another colorful rainbow








The eleven hours journey was like forever... plus the seat belt that keep you safe and tight :D. I hardly keep track where am I. I just keep looking at the watch hoping the time moves super fast. From snowy view to the green grass to the colourful rainbow over the beach and to the town building, finally  we arrived safely at Christchurch. Fuhh! I'm speechless on how to describe the journey.



Next day, our flight was in the afternoon. I managed to play with the drizzling rain :D Yeay! Its has been a while. We had our last shopping deal before we depart to home sweet home. I ended my story telling with this post box. Cute kan :)



End :)
