The lake at Mt. Burke Station where we stayed through the rain.
Our cheerful host Todd, working in the rain.
We spent a lot of time in first Andy's car and then in Si's borrowed car.
Milford Sound was awesome because there had been so much rain! We were rather damp and uncomfortable- it was worth it!!!
The beach at Timaru with Andy.We're in the big city and ready to see the north island!
We're looking at selling our bikes and gear after a few day trips around the south of the north island and renting a car to explore the rest. We're sad to see the bikes go but ready to move on to the next part of this adventure.
We already miss the south island and all our new friends there, we're going through withdrawals! There are just so many people and places that we've really come to love!
Hello, I love seeing new pics. Are you not going to have bikes in Australia? Are you buying a car or renting for that half? I'm so curious about what the future holds. It sounds like you've made some really good friendships and have seen so many wonderful sites. Will you try to see Furbishes? Did you see the Bowens? Jerry wanted to know if you'd gotten in touch with his brother. Anyway, it was good to hear from you.
ReplyDeleteWhat a reward: to see the beauty, to find the friends, to be mindful of all that is around you (including good food, hard work, nature, people)!! We will send you a photo album on your email -- we are in Florida! another foreign country...teehee.
