After multiple reminders from Aunt Ruth to “Absolutely not pick up any hitchhikers!” I set off on my first solo drive to Hawke’s Bay. I followed Uncle Les out of the city for about 30 minutes, so he could point me in the right direction, and then I was on my own. My drive to Hastings was about 4 hours, and I have to admit that I was pretty freaked out about driving on the “wrong” side of the road. By the end of the trip my arms and shoulders were sore from gripping the steering wheel! Each time I successfully navigated through a round-a-bout, I counted it a personal victory! Needless to say, I didn’t see much of the countryside on my trip down, but I’m sure it was beautiful.
