New Zealand 2007 
 
                                    Day Twenty Nelson April 02
                                               
                                            A day to enjoy warm clear skies at the Nelson Founders Heritage Park.   The park is both original
                                            vintage and recreated buildings in Nelson's history.  Different types of vintage transport was also
                                            included.  Interesting aircraft was the Bristol Freighter used to transport containers between North
                                            island and Nelson.  The front loading fleet was used for 35 years until 1986.
 
                                            Other leisure activities included shopping downtown and walks on the beach.  A main beach extended
                                            into a peninsula in the bay.  When the fast moving tide withdrew, it was easy to walk a distance into
                                            the bay on the soft sand.
