September 28 Franz Josef (Hokitika)

Decide to take a drive out to Hokitika. We think it's a close drive but it takes us nearly 2 hours each way to get there! It's actually 130 km away.

We go to Hokitika for a spot of bone carving. We saw some Japanese girl with a necklace that she carved herself and we wanted to try carving too.

We find a bone carvers and it takes us 4 hours to design and carve a small pendant. It is really hard work!!

The owner of the place is a guy called Steve from the Solomon Islands. He's really nice and we have a great time with him.

Do very little for the rest of the day.
