Away to Ashburton

Off again this time moving further down the island to Ashburton just 60km away, a leisurely drive down a long straight road across the longest bridge in New Zealand and a short comfort stop at Rakaia.

Rakaia’s Fish !

Carrying on until almost in Ashburton, we all met up for lunch in a rest area just before Ashburton.   We were pleased to have a view of Aoraki/Mt Cook on the horizon.   Our camp for the next day or two is a lifestyle block (and NZMCA POP) just out of town.   Could be an interesting place as it is full of old cars and farm equipment as the owner, Rob restores cars for himself and others.   We will get to see the collection over the next day or so.
