Again, the three of us had a long bus ride down south. Fortunately, the bus driver stopped occasionally for photo and break. Mike was off to Queenstown to do some jet boating and the Routeburn Track. Alan and I said good-bye to him and made plans to meet up with him again in Te Anau to share a car to Christchurch.
Wanaka was a lovely town by a lake with views of snow capped mountain ranges. Most of the time was spent lazing around, but we actually took to a hike up Mt.Roy one morning with another couple. It was a steep climb up, but when we were just near the top, after about 2.5 hrs of hiking, the sky was covered with clouds and we couldn't get much of a view. We decided to turn around, only to have the sky clear up as we got a good way down. We got some nice views from where we were, but imagine how annoyed we all were. And we were so close to the top....
