thorndale trekking

After visiting the Pujjis in the morning, Lex, Sabrina and I were picked up in town for a horse trek in Cable Bay, about half an hour east of Nelson.

I’ve probably only been on a horse 4 or 5 times in my life, Sabrina had never been on one, and Lex hadn’t ridden in ten years, so we picked one of the tour operators that catered to the less-experienced. Thorndale Horse Treks ended up being a great company – they clearly were in it for the fun not the money, as they were not only the cheapest option by far but the 2-hour ride we paid for ended up being an hour longer.

I wasn’t brave enough to take my camera along, so I don’t have pictures of Cable Bay from the top of the hill (/mountain) where we stopped for tea, but it looked a lot like the bays we saw on the sailing trip and that I flew over yesterday…blue, blue water over yellow-white sand.

Happy new year!
