A later start this morning while domestic duties were attended to and a quick cook up of a fresh batch of scones for morning tea was enjoyed ( I think) by all .

After a long wait at the dump station - a popular place this morning , we all headed off to the NZMCA POP at Parnassus. This was along the remainder of the Kaikoura coastal highway.
We all caught up with each other just out of Kaikoura for lunch beside the sea and enjoyed seeing the antics of the seals just below the parking spot.

The road winds along the coast beside the sea and next to the railway line and through two road tunnels before we climbed the Hundalee hills.

We found the NZMCA POP at Parnassus, an old school property purchased by the NZMCA. It's a good spot although a little noisy with road noise and trains!.
Pauline and I along with Derek, took a short drive to Domett to check out the memorabilia at the old railway station which has been relocated and turned into a cafe. Some interesting old photographs in there and some lovely coffee.
