RELEASE NOTES:

Sending to Future Cat for the New Zealand Convention.

A huge sack of books arrived today - too late for the convention, unfortunately, but they'll still be greatly appreciated by the Christchurch Bookcrossers, and a few might end up travelling over to Australia for the Brisbane convention in June.

Wow, what a lot of copies of Tom Sawyer! I'm sure we'll find something creative to do with them...

Many thanks nekki!

RELEASE NOTES:

Further along the road, we spot Mount Cook. It's a bit hard to miss, really, being the highest mountain in the country. Although actually this is only about the third time I've seen it properly - its Maori name is Aorangi, which means "Cloud Piercer", which gives you a clue as to why I haven't seen it more often - it's always covered by clouds. But today we had a fantastic view.

I was going to release a book on the side of the road where we stopped to take this photo, but the wind was so strong that I was scared it would blow away, so instead I waited until we stopped for petrol in Omarama, another small alpine town.

Somewhere between Tekapo and Omarama we left the province of Canterbury and entered Otago, but as the borders between the provinces are rather vague, there's no sign or anything to tell you you've crossed from one to the other.

On to the next stop on our tour...
