Crossing over to Wellington

After an exhausting drive from Greymouth to Picton, we checked ourselves in for the Interlislander, the ferry across to Wellington. Our Ferry eventually arrived, and while people stepped off the boat, we watched in awe as a whole TEN CARRIAGE TRAIN drove off the ferry! This was followed by a convoy of semi-trailers, and then a long line of cars. Yes, a TEN CARRIAGE TRAIN!! Sorry, I just couldn't get over that one.

The ferry ride over to Wellington was quite long but very scenic. As we approached Wellington, the sun was setting, and the city slowly became visible through a purple-ish haze.
