After a lovely time in Wellington (we are now big fans of AirB&B), we headed to Marahau and the Abel Tasman National Park.  First a car ferry to Picton, then a drive along the northern North Island through Marlborough Sound’s vineyards!  Sadly, it was too late in the day for tastings.  Or perhaps luckily…
