Sunday – Havelock to Nelson

It was a clear crisp morning, with the first ground frost we had experienced since being in New Zealand.  The drive out of Havelock through the Rai Valley was beautiful; we took it very slowly as the roads had been gritted and there was still evidence of ice. 

Once in Nelson we drove on for a couple of kms out of town to Rabbit Island, a recreation reserve which boasted unspoilt beaches and lush pine forests.

Back in Nelson we checked into the Tahuna Beach campsite and went for a walk along the beach opposite the site, making the most of the sunny day.

This evening we had a night out, visiting the cinema to see Toy Story 3 in 3D…us big kids….never!
