Not a lot to report today apart from the fact that since we had been to Punakaici to see the pancake rocks and the blow holes yesterday we decide to go inland for the next stage of our journey. This took us once more through miles of lush green vegetation with only a glimps of mountain in the background now and again. We came upon a swing bridge at Buller Gorge which was the longest swing bridge in New Zealand. Needless to say I didn't venture across it but Pete did and did a short planned walk. Among other things he saw the fault line where an earthquake had occured in White Creek in September 1929 which measured 7.4 on the Richter scale.
