Hokitika ("Hoki" for short) was our first stop on our 8 day road trip from Christchurch. We were meeting our friends from Ireland (Sinéad & Aiden) that we meet on our travels in Mendoza, Argentina-now living here temporarily.
We had the first day and evening to tour the small fishing village while we waited for our friends to return from their road trip in the north of the island. Here's a few highlights of our adventures in "Hoki" that day.
Creations left over from the local driftwood competition.
A few trips back and forth to local library to connect to their free wifi and we finally managed to send enough FB messages to our friends to finally meet up! We spent a full day and two wonderful evenings chatting and enjoying each other's company. Sinéad and Aiden, we miss you already! We look forward to seeing you in Canada soon and back in Ireland one day;)
