I took the West Coast road through Arthur's Pass to head over to Hokitika. My intentions were to try to get here with enough time to fish in the afternoon, but I played sight seer and stopped at a few places along the way. It's pretty neat how it seems that all of a sudden you hit a boundary and you are in the tropics heading east to west over the Southern Alps. Maybe it's because of all the rain…it's been raining since 2 this afternoon, and is still coming down pretty hard!
Off to fish with Dave and Amelia for the next three days and hope to be able to catch my first New Zealand trout!!
Looking back east on the eastern side of the West Coast Road:
