We ask him to come on board and have a cup of coffee. It does not take long and he invites us for dinner to his home. How nice is that!
After a long day in Christchurch we take the bus to his home in the evening. He is preparing a delicious meal: venison, different vegetables, potatoes and a fresh salad. Andy is truly a great cook. The time is running with lots of stories to tell and soon the second bottle of red wine is opened. Our last bus to Lyttelton is leaving without us and we stay for the night. The next morning he drives us back to the marina in Lyttelton before he starts his work and even helps us to get a special spare part for our rig.
We are overwhelmed by such great hospitality from sailors in New Zealand.
Thank you very much Andy, and hopefully we will see you again, next time on SuAn.
