Wish I had written down the list he recited.

[MicCanberra]

Perhaps it was 

Milford Sound, Sutherland Sound, Emelius Arm, Gold Arm, Bradshaw Sound, Thompson Sound, Doubtful Sound, Gaer Arm, Crooked Arm,  Hall Arm, Dagg Sound, Breaksea Sound, Dusky Sound, Edwardson Sound, Cunaris Sound, Isthmus Sound, and Long Sound.

I know we included Milford, Bradshaw, Thompson. Doubtful, Dagg, Breaksea, Dusky and Long, but no real recollection of the names of the others

11 January

Port Chalmers

 

stayed onboard, really not up to going ashore and wresting the wheelchair onto a shuttle.

 

Started to blow in the afternoon and even in the harbour waves are getting up, I think we may have a rough night and already wondering if we will miss Akaroa again.

Not a bad day in our city after recent bad weather. Hope winds don't get up too much as Majestic Princess due tomorrow.

Strong Norwesters with temps in late 20s for Canterbury tomorrow. Peaceful day in Otago.

I would think with your back condition, you wouldn't want it too bumpy.

Had lunch there the other day, even scored a pie and sausage roll. Plan on trying it for breakfast shortly.

Magic, I trust they had tomato sauce available?
