When the sun is shining and the mountaintops are in view the
scenery here is stunning!
Today we drove the Milford Road, stopping at lots of the
viewpoints and DOC areas and other points of interest. Fed some keas by the Homer Tunnel and took
lots of photos of Milford Sound - it was so beautiful there and Mitre Peak is
so iconic. We also drove up the
Hollyford Road past Gunns Camp to the Humboldt Falls which drop in 3
sections. Malcolm took a movie clip but
I don't think I can post movies on the blog.
It was a big day - about 9 hours - but it takes more than 2
hours non-stop from Te Anau to Milford Sound. And we certainly weren't going
non-stop. Had a coffee in a cafe at
Milford - not the best ever but what an amazing view!
