First Glitch

Got a call today that the van we wanted was not available! Shoot. However, we did business with another company and got another one but it is manual and not automatic. We've both driven standards here and abroad on the "wrong" side of the road, so we'll adapt. While working through our agent with another agent, it was suggested we book the ferry from Wellington to Picton now as there are limited spaces for campers and they are popular at that time of year. So, we have requested bookings going from the north island to the south and back so we won't have to worry. We have also decided to spend most of our time on the south island. Hope we made the right decision.
