New Zealand-Greymouth, Arthurs Pass

Not much in Hokitika for us. On to Greymouth and got a cabin at TOP 10 which was superb. Walked to CBD which was very run down.
Next day drove up coast about 10km to miners memorial then turned back. Coal mining town just north of Greymouth. Waitangi day event at park in Greymouth, Chatted to Faithful Christian from Gloryvale Community. Chatted to Hangi man as steam came from food in natural ovens in ground.

No accommodation in Greymouth as Coast to Coast race starting next day.

Drove up to Arthurs Pass spectacular mountain road. Gave 3 guys a lift who were walking length of New Zealand and had been trapped in a hut bu floods for three days. Gave them our left over pizza.

Stopped for a 2 hour walk on Beale Spur.
