Enough of the shops! The next day I was taken on a mystery tour, passing through Lincoln and Tai Tapu, then after 15 mins or so of flat land it was exciting to see some hills. We turned off the main road and on to Gebbies Pass Road - well, I think that's where we went! It wasn't long before tantalising glimpses of Lyttelton Harbour Inlet appeared; taking photos from the car was fun but it wasn't always easy with hedges and trees getting in the way.

We arrived in Lyttelton right on lunchtime - we had planned to go to the
Fisherman's Wharf Restaurant but it is closed Monday to Wednesday so strolled through town and ended up at the Lyttelton Coffee Company instead.

Well watered and fed, it was back to the car for the next stage of my mystery trip!
