An early start this morning and up at 6am to ensure we got to the ferry port ready for boarding by 7.25am. This is apparently one of the worlds most picturesque ferry crossings, passing through the Cook Strait which has notorious rip tides and experiences regular gale force winds. Unfortunately as you can see from my picture, the weather today is not good for sightseeing as the clouds are low and the skies very gray. So far, the journey has been very smooth – no sick bags required!
The ferry, once it has crossed the Strait then weaves its way through small islands and rocky outcrops before docking in Picton.
Meanwhile, Mr Fogg is catching up on some zzzz’s and I’ve found the on board Tourist Info. More leaflets anyone??
We rocked gently from here.
