Four hours, countless changes of scenery - from lush green hills to arid valleys, to snow-capped mountains (Arthur's Pass was quite something) and through to the Canterbury plains.
Quite a memorable ride. Relaxing, restoring and an altogether pleasant way to spend an afternoon.
I arrived at Christchurch in the evening, did not enjoy spending the night there in the rather creepy hostel (so creepy)*, and left first thing in the morning for Dunedin.
*Here's a tip for ya. Some things shouldn't be left to the last minute. Hostel booking is one of them. Try and plan things one or two days ahead**, it makes life a lot easier - not to mention your nights more comfortable.
**Not that I've ever taken my own advice. Ever. But let's not open that particular can of worms right now.
