Nelson

The cathedral
Cathedral from the tree lined streets

Sunset in Nelson, over the ocean

So I go to a city every now and again, even the hard worn country bumpkins need a little civilisation and a cinema fix every now and again. I am not sure it was worth my money sitting through "the marvellous adventures of Benjamin Button" but it was nice to take a break in Nelson, a small town rather than a city, and take in the art gallery, the cathedral and the odd iced chocolate (too hot for a hot chocolate), along with chilled meander along the streets and a sit in the park. I even had a beginners tango lesson in my backpackers accomodation this evening - it is a lot harder than those celebraties are making it look on the tv.
