Auckland - Nelson

After a couple of night's in an Auckland motel we are fully tested and ready for the short flight to Nelson.
Our plane is the smallest yet!
It's like a bus.

After an hour the mountains of the south island come into view.



Look who's there to pick us up!

After lunch we head to Tuhunanui beach. 

It's beautiful. Someone told us the water was warm, they lied!
The boys hit the waves.

Boys with big cousin Fin.
Prosecco in the hot tub, which is warm.

It's great to start this new part of our trip and to hook up with family. Claire, Liam, Fergus and Finlay have a fab home in Nelson. Brilliant to see Mum and Dad too. We are looking forward to spending a week getting to know the area and spending time with family.
