September 18 Kaikoura

Wake up early for our seal kayake tour. Only Net and I are on the tour with our guide. We get a 2 man kayake. Net and I are pretty horrible kayakers so are incredibly slow. Eventually we get to some rocky point where there is a large colony of male seals. We sit and watch them laze about in the sun before heading back.

NET AND JENNY KAYAKING

Inside The MAORI LEAP CAVES



In the afternoon we go to some tour of caves called Maori Leap Caves. The tour just has Net, Kate and me on it. It's great being in NZ out of tourist season!! The tour is really cool and educational. The cave is 88 million years old and has some great visual examples of stalagmites and stalagtites. The tour guide is really fun and makes the tour really fun to be on.
