The weather forecast was bad, but we were all booked to go. flew to Queenstown then drove to Te Anau.
Looking at Lake Wakatipu on the way.
Then to Milford sound, I had cancelled the boat trip there because getting there was so uncertain with the weather conditions.
Driving out from Te Anau
And we made it to Milford Sound
And then back again through the Homer Tunnel.
A trip to Doubtful Sound was logistically easier so off we went the next day to do that
First across Lake Manapouri
Then out on Doubtful Sound, into a wet world.
Big landscape out there.
Then to Wanaka, caught up with Ross Nicholson from High School, and to the Cardrona Hotel for the night.
Our little Toyota made it back across the Crown Range and into Queenstown for the trip back.
We missed some hailstorms in Auckland, and got many dramatic waterfalls in Fiordland.
