We've made it Nelson at the north end of the South Island. In addition to beautiful ocean views, this is home to some great wine country. (The more famous and commercial Marlborough region is a couple of hours away.) The vineyards here are small and charming. So we did some tasting.
Other than that, we've mostly been exploring somewhat randomly, taking in the ocean views.
Nelson is a fun city with great food and a nice movie theater. There was pent up demand to see a movie, so several of us opted for "Office Christmas Party." It was mediocre but fun (and not as bad as the critics allege). Also, it was filmed in Chicago, making us nostalgic for home at the holidays.

Nelson! Mara and I really enjoyed our stay there! Wine, local cheese and lamb! Enjoy!
