January 10, 2024 Home..for now (Day 105)
Today is a laundry, pack, relax day in preparation for our train ride tomorrow from Rangiora to Blenheim on the KiwiRail Coastal Pacific! It is one of the three Great Journeys New Zealand by rail through some of the most beautiful landscapes of New Zealand. We’re staying at the Beach Cottage Blue Bach in Waikuku Beach. There’s no real ‘town’ here, just a collection of holiday homes, camping parks, the Surf Lifesaving Club and a small convenience store. We drive about 15 minutes to Rangiora for grocery shopping and we walk about 5 minutes to the beach for unlimited walking!
On the road into the community!
