This afternoon we crossed from Picton to Wellington on the North Island. Sadly we all arrived safely but our coach & driver didn't.
We left Christchurch at 7.00am aboard the Coastal Pacific Train for the 5hr 45min journey to Picton to board the 2.15pm InterIsland Ferry for the North Island.
The railway and road run alongside each other along the spectacular coastline. A good time was had by all espying Fur Seals & Dolphins & keeping a look out for Scott our driver and the coach. We saw him twice but he was nowhere to be seen in Picton. Sadly there had been a fatal crash on the coast ride & Scott was marooned in a long traffic jam. He and the coach were booked on the next Ferry at 6.30pm but that was running 3 hours late so the poor man will not get to the hotel until midnight.
So no luggage but had a lovely dinner that I was allowed to join this evening. I haven't yet tested negative but I have really felt normal today. So I think it's drinking chocolate & wait for my case at around midnight.
Sorry no photos on phone to attach.
Happy Easter!
