The boat took another 1 ½ hours to wind its way through Queen Charlotte Sound, snaking past islands and round bends. The hills were covered in trees, sometimes typical new zealand bush (ferns etc) and sometimes swathes of fir trees. It was very deserted, just the occasional yacht, an isolated house or oyster farm. It reminded me very much of pictures of the rives in Canada.Eventually we reached the small town of Picton where we disembarked. We had a quick drive around the town which is very pretty, the water was almost unbelievably green and there were palm trees all along the shore.
