Leaving Wanaka
Two days ago I said goodbye to Wanaka. I am really sorry to leave and am now having a really hard time coping with the idea of leaving the south island. It really such an amazing place. Right now I'm in Christchurch getting ready to head north through Kaikoura and Blenheim. Teddy drove me to Christchurch and yesterday we visited a town called Akaroa, where we went swimming with the dolphins. They were Hector's dolphins, the world's rarest dolphins and it was amazing.

Making beds and sipping wine
Today was just another day at work with many, many beds to make, bathrooms and kitchens to clean. When I finished, however, Teddy and I trekked out to Rippon Vineyard and enjoyed a free wine tasting. Rippon is located next to beautiful Lake Wanaka and is famous around these parts for the yearly summer music festival that takes place there. They had a nice Riesling and Pinot Noir. Teddy and I opted to bring back a bottle of their Osteiner, a white, hybrid wine... new to me, and enjoyed that with a pasta dinner. All in all, a good day.
