This time it has taken us through the Haast Pass, up the West Coast, past Fox and Franz Josef Glaciers through Hokitika and Greymouth, through the Buller Pass and upwards to the Abel Tasman, where we did a lovely walk out from Sandy Bay to Anchorage Lookout and back.

I was so excited driving up the West Coast to see the oneway road and rail bridges, wonderfully kiwi - these are bridges that are one way but used in boat directions by road and rail traffic, complete without barriers and with 100's of signs to warn you of the existence of something. But it looks like they are replacing these with new bridges, a separate one for the trains. I'm so dissappointed, but I suppose safety is paramount.
