Tuesday 22nd on to Cromwell

With lots to do between now and handing back the camper van we decided to miss out the trip to the east coast and Oamaru. Unfortunately this means missing out of our favourite restaurant Riverstone, but another 200+ miles was going to be too much.

A short drive then to Cromwell and the LLW having been deprived of her meal at Riverstone, insisted on lunch at Mount Difficulty which we enjoyed along with the beautiful views over the vineyards. Our only gripe is that they are clearly too successful now and value for money is not what it used to be.




We checked in at our camp site in Cromwell and it was time for a bike ride down through the historic old town of Cromwell, around the golf course, up to the shopping mall and across the SH88 to Lake Dunstan and then around the shore for a few miles. Lovely and in spite of relatively high winds we were not bothered by the wind on our ride.

Tomorrow we drive to Arrowtown to meet with Dave Dixon, Jess, Isla and Oli.
