4 - - New Zealand - - Queenstown, Milford Sound and Glenorchy

Heading south toward
Milford Sound










A Kia is not necessarily a
Korean car



Our tour boat on Milford
Sound

A foggy cruise departure

Out into the sound

It had rained 48 mm in the
past 24 hours

Which fed the brief
waterfalls - - our timing was perfect

And the ship had only five
passengers



Cathy helped the captain
navigate

We could see why Captain
Cook never realized the sound was here



Our stop for the underwater
viewing

The ship that would take
us on back

Yes, it rains a bit here

Heading down below

40 ft deep here is like
the ocean at several hundred



One last waterfall

Then back into port

And back through the
tunnel

Another Kia



Read the reflection


Back in Queenstown for the
evening

What could I say?




We're here


in time for breakfast


Heading back toward
Queenstown


This is the "Lord of
the Rings" beach

where the Fellowship of
the ring broke up

Fellow hikers


Back to Queenstown again

Bidding goodbye to New
Zealand

and heading to Australia
