New Zealand and Australia Cruise - Picton & Akaroa NZ Jan. 2020

Visited Picton as a substitute port for Dunedin, after a sea day instead of Milford Sound. (Upset about those two changes, but what can you do? Captain rules the ship.) The night before we arrived in Picton, I found a boat tour that looked halfway interesting. I enjoyed the boat tour, then found Howard for fish and chips, and then explored the pretty town of Picton. We woke up next day at 7 AM in Akaroa. We tendered ashore & went on the awesome Eastern Bays Scenic Mail Run (pre-booked), then I visited the wonderful Giants House.
