Dawn said that since it was so expensive, she wanted to drive us to the peninsula. She took us to the Albatross Visitors Centre. It was not the season to see them, but it was a beautiful day. We saw the driveway to the castle, but it cost money just to see it, so we passed. There was a place to see the penguins, but it wasn't the right time. So we just drove along. Then we went to the bus station and waited. The bus was 45 minutes late, because people in Christchurch weren't sure where to pick up the bus. Lame excuse, but oh well. The trip seemed to take forever, because we were so anxious to get to Christchurch. Plus, the door to the bus took about 5 minutes to close. Every stop we made, we had to wait for the stupid door to close. The bus would not move until it closed completely. It was so frustrating. We did finally get there an hour late. It was so wonderful to see Alister there to pick us up.
