Kaikoura Whale Watch

Today we did the Kaikoura whale watch. 2 1/2 hour boat trip along the coast chasing sperm whales. After some time thinking we wouldn't see anything eventually we saw three whales. Two of them obligingly dived revealing their tail fins. We also saw albatros a sealion and another seal colony.
The whales are huge, the photos don't really do justice to their size.
After lunch we had to take a trip to the garage as our Van lights failed last night. We were quickly sorted out by two very kind Kiwi garage mechanics who did several running repairs to the van, so all functioning well again now.
