Day 17: Turangi to Wellington to Christchurch

I checked out of the hostel as early as I could since the drove was going tp be really long. On the way I stopped by a Macca s (Mcdonalds) for the free wifi and  then to Wellington. The drive wasnt as scenic as the other route I took to get from Wellington to Turangi but it was still nice.

I made sure to go through the Victoria Tunnel on the way back before returning the car.

The shuttle was free from the car rental shop to the airport so I took that but I was around 6 hours too early for my flight. I considered going back to the city to hang out with a friend but she wasnt free till later and I figured it wasnt worth the bus fare.

I would have loved to land in this airport from Canada because it had a bunch of Lotr sculptures...

I took the flight to Christchurch and met with my host farmer. We went back to the farm and I got to meet the other backpackers volunteering at the farm: 2 italians, an american and a french.

I was excited to be there, excited to try something new.
