In middle of continuing the turn with background view of Godley Beach Park at the tip of the stripe. If you can see almost enclosed harbour below the second engine from left of the plane, that is Lyttelton Harbor and its town of Lyttelton which is famous destination for cruise liners and is the South Island's principal goods transport terminal, handling 34% of exports and 61% of imports by value.
