DAY 13: Renwick to Nelson

Failed abysmally to find the hill we intended to walk up (Mt Royal) so did some little walks in the woods at the bottom of the Richmond Range instead. Drove over to see the Boulders on the western side of the south island (we’ve missed out all of Abel Tasman already here). Stayed overnight in A Culinary Experience B&B (currently building new premises I believe) run by and American couple who seem to sail half the year and live in New Zealand the rest. Not the cheapest at NZD 255 a night including dinner at 45dollars a head (but she is a chef). We donated the wine as by then we had a large collection! http://www.a-culinary-experience.com/ .
