4.00Quite a bit of driving, the upside is experiencing the stunning scenery and hearing about New Zealand. We really enjoyed the Sheep farm visit. Seeing the working dog, sheep shearing and delightful Tea and cookies. Lovely gardens at the farm. ChristChurch was a drive by today, fine with me but not as advertised.

3.00Our guide Graham provided little commentary during the one hour plus drives to and from the sheep farm. Seeing the sheep dog herd sheep and watching a sheep being sheered was interesting. The hosts Trevor and Heather were informative. Graham was much more talkative during the Christchurch portion of the tour.
Excellent driver/guide...
