The ride from Hokitika down the coast was stunning. It was about 140 km south to the Franz Joseph Glacier. But since we didn’t feel any need to do a heli-hike, aerial sightseeing, or skydiving- we did a drive by to see the glacier from a distance and continued on our way.
We made a quick stop in Pukekura, the home of the Bushman’s Centre- and the giant sandfly (as well as the Road Kill Café).We ended the day at Haast, a “town” of sorts- with a tavern, grocery store, café, laundry and motel. After checking out the tavern dinner options, we headed to the café for take-out burgers and went back to our room to have wine, burgers and watch Billy Connelly in NZ.
