Mussel meal/Rainy Day/ Lunch at Raetihi Lodge

We cancelled our mail boat cruise dinner time yesterday. Rain clouds were gathering and the forecast was not good.

Last night, our hosts put on an amazing spread of mussels on the half shell with toppings, focaccia bread, and oyster fritters. It was neat sitting at a long table meeting and chatting with the other guests. There are Canadians, Germans, Irish, and Australians staying here. We seem to be the only Kiwis. One of the Australians had just completed a 28km. Queen Charlotte Sound walk.

It's an indoors kind of a day. We drove 2 kms back up the road to have lunch at the Raetahi Lodge. It was very nice - the rain seems to be lifting.

We plan on reading our books this afternoon.
