When we landed on the South Island, we got off in Picton and (after a rendez vous at our hotel to watch the 3rd presidential debtate) we drove the scenic route between Picton and Havelock, the Green-Lipped Mussel capital of the world. This is one of the views we saw along the way.

Many of the roads in the South Island are particularly windy due to the mountainous terrain and our scenic route was one of those.

Elana is thrilled to get to wear short sleeves and light pants. It was quite warm on the South Island.

We were heading to Havelock around sunset.
