Valentine's

We left Motueka to head for Nelson after Chris helped to rescue a cat stuck up a tree, as we were advised of a cheap camp nearby. We diverted through Richmond and had a lovely lunch, me – sushi, Chris – Chicken Laksa. We also bought supplies for a nice Valentine’s dinner. We found the camp, and although ok, the sites were pretty rubbish and the guy was pretty annoying. We finally found a nice spot after negotiating the fact that the one selected for us was pants and after chilling for a while Chris cooked up some amazing fillet steak (mine blue of course), with smashed cannelloni beans cooked in garlic and rosemary, flat mushrooms and a delicious salad. The sand-flies were pretty bad which of course they are most nights here in the south Island so we headed to bed early to escape them.
