LOCATION: Akaroa, near Christchurch, New Zealand
WEATHER: Beautiful. Highs in 70s
We decided to stay another day, but moved from the commercial park to this free camping spot. Called Freedom Camping, these sites are all over the country. Since we have a certified self-contained campervan (meaning we have a porta-loo and sink), we can stay free at these places.
We strolled around town, then went on the harbor cruise. 
We saw lots of wildlife including the world's smallest dolphins.
They frolicked along our wake. Then, we saw the world's smallest penguins....look more like ducks.
The cruise lasted about 2 hours, and brought us back to the harbor.
The town is super cute, with a French heritage.
We went to a locals' pub and George met a real character....
DINNER: Back at the campervan, we cooked dinner on our single burner. Even though this is a coastal town, we could not find any fresh fish to cook. So, I made a stir-up with canned tuna, garlic, peas, green onions and rice.
