We travelled from Queenstown to Te Anau where we stayed at the Top 10 Holiday Park and I was able to do a BBQ in the sunshine at 7pm! In Queenstown we lose the sun where we are about 2 hours earlier. The following day we drove up to Milford Sound as we had flown in there on our previous trip.

Entrance to the Homer Tunnel as we head toward Milford. Traffic is one way and controlled by traffic lights that work on a 15 minute cycle.

Water flowing through the "Chasm" where the flow of water has carved its way through solid rock over thousands of years.

A roadside view of the remnants of the slip that closed the Milford road earlier in the year.
What we came to see, Mitre Peak.

Mr E says: Is the grass really that long?
Nah, I was cheating, I was lying down.
Hi S & R. That drive into Milford I rate as the best drive anywhere that we have done - so much so that we did it twice in two days. A magic place.
