Postcard from Banks Peninsular

Scary Way Home .. Not for Me

My son did a few more jobs for me before doing a few hours of studying for his IT degree. Later in the afternoon we headed back to Christchurch. Instead of taking the main road back we went along the other-side of the Peninsular. From Pigeon Bay through to Port Levy the road is gravel. It is very steep in parts and some people find it a bit too scary. I haven't been on it for about 15 year and found it in better condition than last time I was on it.
