Day 96 : Lewis Pass near to Hanmer Springs

Another peaceful day; when the weather improved in the afternoon, we revisited the tail-end of our route along the Lewis Pass from Monday evening (better visibility today and we were considerably less preoccupied this time)

The press here is covering the accident and it sounds as though the wee lad is making a good recovery : http://m.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=11174001



Meanwhile of course time ticks ever onward ...

"On the sixth day of Christmas, my true love gave to me : 
Six seagulls squawking, 

Five keas cackling, 
Four possums playing, 
Three cows a-cuddling, 
Two pavs a-cooking and 
A kiwi in a palm tree."
