Sounds a beautiful place Lyle, 

The pool house was not open to the public.

Doris Duke's bedroom suite was not open then either. The whole estate is closed now they are renovating during the COVID shut down.

I didn't get to see that scene, because they wouldn't let us get off the ship in Akaroa.  I was booked to go on a trip with the postman, so big disappointment.

You must host the best parties Julie, you make the best party games. The virtual cruise now this, thanks for starting fun things.

No Lyle, Akaroa NZ.

This is Port Campbell - growing up, my family used to visit Port Campbell and have picnics at the beach.

This is an interesting place.

We were scheduled to spend 2 night there on Adventure plan v1.2 and now we are just starting the land part of adventure v2.0

That's a shame, it's a lovely little town and the surrounding countryside is beautiful.

 

Hopefully you'll get there another time.

Saw a commercial picnic at Burleigh the other day.  There was a carpet square on the ground with a small low square table, with food, drink and flowers on the top, with guests sitting around the table.

Thank you, Lyle. I have to confess I stole the idea off the Crystal forum - some people started posting "where was I" photos in their Bistro thread among other stuff. I thought it would be a fun idea to have a thread dedicated to that here. It's nice to see places that other people know about.

Yes, I'm well overdue for another land holiday in NZ.  We are lucky to have such a different beautiful country so close to Australia.

I finally got to do the trip with the postman this February - had a fantastic day. Perfect weather too 😁

I love Akaroa - have been several times and done different excursions or just walked the pretty little town. Dolphin watching is very interesting too.

It's a lovely drive over to Akaroa from Christchurch and there is an alternative route back via Lyttleton although the road isn't as good as the main route. Still, it's worth doing.
