| On the way into Milford Sound the scenery was picture perfect... |
 |
| Wild Flowers, they were the prettiest pinks & purples..... |
 |
| Water running over the rocks... |
 |
| One of the many waterfalls on the way in.... |
 |
| Avalanche, they have signs to say no stopping.... |
 |
| Yep, more snow/ice..... |
 |
| With waterfalls behind us....& the Subaru Legacy, they must have sold heaps of these cars, they are everywhere... |
 |
| This was just before the one lane tunnel to go through to the Sound... |
 |
| It's a tight fit for the buses, it's really strange when you go in there, it is 1.2klms long & there are lights to send you through... |
 |
| Another Glacier... |
 |
| Stirling Falls are 150mtrs high & are 3 times the height of Niagra Falls (51mtrs high). This is also the waterfall that Hugh Jackman jumped over in Wolverine.....(he did it on a green screen of course) It is also called the boat wash because that's what you get when you get close to it... |
 |
| The Wanderer in the background, before dinner we had the choice of water sports, kayak, swimming or going on the tender, Dan & I picked the tender & Greg & Ethan swam.....(silly boys, the water was freezing, they jumped from the top deck into the water) |
 |
| Looking down Milford Sound |
 |
| This is where we stayed for the night, very calm.... |
 |
| The food was the best that we have had so far, the chef had made Curried Sweet Potato Soup, Lamb Shanks with mashed potato, pumpkin & vegs & Chocolate Brownie with ice cream & berry sauce....I may have eaten everyones pumpkin, but I did swap my Lamb Shank for it......Not that they were complaining..... |
