NZ 2019: A Look Back at the South Island Part 1

Exploring the North Island more fully with a caravan--and the exquisite campground locations it led us to--was a real joy. But arriving on the South Island always feels like coming home. Here are a few highlights as we prepare to depart. Wait why are my eyes blurring...

Mt Cook/Aoraki National Park

 

With its devastating glacier loss

 

Lake Tekapo

 

The ukelele festival in Geraldine

(click here to view if reading in email)

 

Kaikoura Peninsula Walkway

 

Lunch at the Kaikoura Seafood BBQ Truck

Marfells Beach DOC site

 

 

Elaine Bay DOC site (who needs power with these views?)

 

 

 

 

Okarito

 

Haast (and a toast to our driver)

 

Dorothy Brown's Cinema/Bar/Bookstore in Arrowtown

(not named for my dear late friend but evoking her spirit nonetheless)

 

Glenorchy, the road to Glenorchy, and all the walks in Glenorchy

 

 

 

Lake Wanaka campsite at Glendhu Bay

 

All for now. Probably more to come...
