We rented “The Red Sled” (please note, her name is now Lucy, NOT the Red Sled.

Lyndon will be uodating her identity shortly!) for 7 days to drive around the South Island. Literally the best trip I have taken, and in large part based on Lucy being our home, mother, best friend, and showstopper. We were local celebrities wherever we went with her charm and good looks! I learned how to drive a manual 3 days before renting her, and although it was tough to driver her, we managed super well. She really didn’t have any problems the entire time, apart from the steering wheel being on the wrong damn side (what kind of psychos drive on the wrong side of the road anyway?!). But seriously, no mishaps, apart from when I flooded the engine, and Lyndon was there within a couple of hours. This man is seemingly ubiquitous, and such a sweetheart. Always available when we had a question. I can not recommend Lyndon and his fleet highly enough. If you’re not driving one of these babies, you’re not doing it right. So much freedom, romance and magic when you’re with Lucy or her siblings. We will see you again some day soon, Lyndon & Lucy! Tata for now, and thank you for the trip of a lifetime!
