These cities in the south part of the south Island all have great memories gor me now. I've seen so many amazing views, been on fabulous hikes and one trail bike ride, and seen so much water in huge lakes, huge waterfalls, and crystal clear glacial rivers.
I ate lamb and once was enough. I discovered some thick and delicious New Zealand yogurt. Met some new friends. Saw glowworms on the ceiling of a huge cave with a raging river in it. Voyaged on the waters of Milford Sound. Saw some odd birds, learned about stoats, and saw so many dead possums on every road (not such a bad thing because they poison them here).
Saw rain, sun, and new snow on the mountains, and two huge valleys with hundreds of vineyards. All that and more to come! Tomorrow we go to Wanaka, a town on a huge lake that should be beautiful, and from there to the west coast.
This makes 4 days of excellent internet! I hope it continues! I can't stop taking pictures of fabulous scenery.
Milford Sound cruise. Cold but the scenery was worth it!
