Today we added water wings to our van to cross the Cook Strait. But we began the day with two detours: a walk at Karaka Point
And a visit to the foreshore market at Picton where we discovered that we were hugely ripped off when we bought jade at Hokitika paying prices about ten times higher than similar pieces at the Picton market. Not happy and a warning to others – do not buy jade at Hokitika!
Then it was off to join the queue for the inter island ferry, almost a two hour wait
And then we were aboard for some smooth sailing and no need for sea sickness pills
