Nelson to Greymouth

14.May 2010 - Greymouth


Today was the first day it was raining since I?m here. But it didn?t bother me really, cause our bus ride took all day anyway. Our first stop was on a beautiful beach, where we walked up the hill through a rain forest to see see lions sleeping on the rocks. We also stopped at a café where a walking trek leaded to the ?Pancake Rocks?. But I just couldn?t be bothered walking, cause when we arrived it was pissing rain. Jill was a bit sad before, cause I told her we were going to stop there, but then her bus stopped there as well and she had good weather. So in the end she did and I didn?t see it?
Jill took the Intercity bus straight to Franz Josef and I had a stop over night in Greymouth. The weather suited to the name and it wasn?t a nice town at all. But my hostel was really cozy and I had an early sleep.
