Raglan: Day 7

 

1 Dec2024

The day was squandered trying to get a disabled rental car to the airport in Hamilton, an hour away, in order to exchange it for a drivable car! It took all day to find the means to get a towing truck to pick us and the car up and drive us to Hamilton. The highlight of the day were the Belgian waffles we had in town!

 In case you've never seen it, as I hadn't, below is what a blown out tire looks like! I made two of those! :(

We met a very nice towing driver, Marianne, who told us many interesting things about New Zealand during the 1hr drive to Hamilton.
