Day 1 on the Abel Tasman Coastal Track
We had another clear, positive sign that we were not on
the Milford Track: Anchorage Hut sits about 30 meters off a gorgeous beach,
which is where we spent most of the afternoon. We relaxed, we strolled along
the mile or so of white sand. We watched groups of kayaks pass in both directions
just off shore. There was a very gentle surf. Though the water was brisk,
the sun was warm and we tested the water.
No, this was not the Milford Track!
We luxuriated in the sun, walked the beach, and relaxed before beginning
dinner preparations and a game or two of Shanghai Rummy.
