Stewart Island and still No FISH

Our plan today was to go on the semi-submersable to see some fish however getting on board and going out in this special boat the visibility was not suitable and so we headed back to port and then think what we would do next. So, after some considerable thought we went to the small Fish & Chip cabin on the sea front and looked at the fish there, admittadley after they had been cooked in batter and served with chips. Not bad really.
Then using the borrowed car we did a quick tour, it has to be quick as there are few roads to drive on so after about 35 minutes we had seen all we could and then headed back to the Motel for an afternoon's reading. A really exhausting day!!
Tonite we shall stay in and watch TV as we have to be up early to catch the 0800 hrs boat back to Bluff and then drive the 190 Kilometres or so to Te Enau where we shall spend three nights exploring the moutains and lakes etc.
