Interim Update #1,275: On The South Island!

It's a long story, to be recounted in due course, but thanks to Vicki's persistence, we got on the 2AM Saturday Bluebridge ferry--delayed, of course, until after 7AM--but finally got to Picton, South Island, in time for lunch in Havelock at an old favorite, The Mussel Pot. We're now in Nelson, looking forward to its Sunday market, and then heading on to the Abel Tasman national park and some day hikes there. Hurrah!

Me, there, displaying a humongous 4" mussel shell;
the green shell/lip mussels, "greenies," are even larger
than I'd remembered...

I don't see a pot of those at Vicki's place!
