Otago NZ Adventure 2014/15

Day one: Otago Adventure. 




Up at 4:50am, stand on the back of a man's jandal at Christchurch airport and broke it, throw a "Sorry" over my shoulder as I join the queue boarding for Queenstown. Pray that he isn't  on the flight. 

Jump in the hire car and drive to Milford Sound, 5 hours. 



I hoped that it would be worthwhile- it was!!!  We bumped into Fiona Allison. Dipped our toes in the water expecting ice, but it was warm as a bath. After a 2 hour drive to Manapouri, Manapouri we arrived at the Lakeview Inn, good lodgings, a swim in the Lake and dinner at the pub 100m from unit. At 10pm and Lance is still sitting outside in daylight and me ready for bed. Great day today!
