Cromwell

Yesterday we drove from lake Tekapo to Cromwell in Central Otago.  This is Mt Cook, seen from Lake Pukaki as we went past.

This was the first time we had been over the Lindis Pass.  This is the summit...

...where we stopped to have a coffee.

After parking the bus at Cromwell we drove to Alexandra to do our Xmas shopping.  Malcolm gets the Xmas spirit by sitting under a holly bush.

Lake Dunstan in the evening.

Today I went for a wander around Old Cromwell which has some original and some relocated old buildings (moved when the town was flooded for the dam).  Some are like mini-museums, others have art and craft workshops, cafes or shops in them.

There was no one much around


Lovely interesting and peaceful place to look around.
