I don't have alot of photos of Picton left, unfortunately due to a glitch with my external hard drive most of them were accidentally deleted. This was taken last April when we were in the process of driving down the north island to Greymouth. Picton is the top of the South Island where the interislander ferries berth after leaving Wellington. The carving in the photo is what's known as a Maori Pou, probably the result of a very clever local artist.
It's a small town with an approx population of around 4310 people and is a gateway to the Marlborough Sounds and Queen Charlotte Track. I would've liked to have been able to spend more time here and take more photos but we had to be on our way.

A beautiful park with a totem there. Quite scenic.
Like so many others,I've wanted to be on my way after getting off the ferry. It's a shame really as it looks to be a very pleasant town.
Da wäre ich jetzt auch gerne ein schöner Platz !
I liked Pictor and picked up some lovely wood carvings there.
It looks like a tranquil harbour
Beautiful! I'd love to explore there.

It is looking lovely these days - it wasn't always thus.
...I've lost a number of pictures too, what a bumber.
