Nelson
Many people on the way have told me they loved Nelson, a city of about 50'000 souls in the north of the South Island. I hadn't visited it when I just arrived on the ferry and because the weather forecast for Nelson was good (it mostly is) I drove from the pancake rocks all the way north to Nelson. Indeed a very pretty little city with an excellent climate most of the year.
I found a very cheap hotel room in the centre of town: $30,- Of course I should have been suspicious that it was so cheap in a popular destination like Nelson but I guess I'm still naive.
When I had had a beer in the bar downstairs I decided it was enough for the day and wanted to go to sleep. That was just when the band started playing and they stayed with it until about 2:30 am.
