Today I’m continuing moving towards Picton. The weather is okay now but I won’t be surprised if I will finish under the rain.

This morning starts by a beautiful rainbow. With the clouds onto its “feet” it’s remind me Bisounours world haha :-)
I’ve slept one more time in a park next to a kind of lake.
I’m now on the road riding along another lake.
Arrived around Richmond after a bad portion of road, I appreciate to have a cycle road for me.
Yes, better than the big main noisy road :-)
Now between Richmond and Nelson onto a cycling coast way I’m pretty sure I will get rain before I arrive to my place.
Nelson! Good style :-)
Nelson!
A green city?
Getting better or not?
The port.
Those rocks have a sharp shape, straight and dark.
As every time there is so many big houses everywhere.
Ah, without the truck it’s better.
Nice colours but dangerous sky…
Others stylish houses.
Everywhere.
A wharf.
The city center of Nelson is a bit inland. I’ve got enough time toviit it a bit.
I didn’t see many time a city centre with trees along the street.
Shops, bank and shops.
Ouuuh, it’s getting dark.
But beatiful sunset again.
I was cycling on the main road and I couldn’t find a place to stay. Finally I turned left towards the sea, expected to avoid the main traffic but the same problem was still there. Impossible to find a good place. All around there was fences and houses.
I was ready to turn back when the perfect place popped to me :-) a park! A small one but a park. I had just the time to pitch my tent and put everything I need inside when the rain started. Ouf, lucky!
