Day 22.Lake Pukaki - Oamaru. Out of the woods.

Three days in the wilderness now, so I guess that makes us officially feral. Wend's grown a beard, I've stopped shaving my legs, we're eating a lot of nuts and we've even been washing our smalls in the lake.

Excuse the pun, but on reflection, we think our time by the lake will turn out to be one of the highlights of the entire trip. (reflection - lake, gettit?) A million miles from our hectic lives back in London, with only the views, the wildlife and each other for company. Total bliss.

Until the wind got up this afternoon, which was our cue to we pack the van and head for the electricity, flushing toilets and fried food of Oamaru.


Enjoyed the fried food in the evening and saw a really crap band in a bar.
