Abel Tasman Park
Well, let's try this again. (typed this post and as went to "publish" my internet time ran out) Aaargh!
We spent a splendid afternoon in Abel Tasman Park, driving to Kaiteriteri (about an hour north of Nelson) to catch a water taxi. This national park is only accessible by water so we took the option of cruising to the top of their route and then getting dropped at a little beach called Anchorage to wander around a bit.
Beautiful scenery on the cruise, of course, and we saw a few seals along the way.
Top picture is when they dumped us on our beach, after paging "Vollerie end Istelle" (rough imitation of Kiwi accent) to remind us we were getting off. The same boat came back about an hour later and picked us up again to return to Kaiteriteri. We walked up a hill to get the view in second picture, went back down, and played on the beach a bit. Water was beautifully clear and warm(ish) -- I would've swam had I brought my togs (swimsuit).
