Here are some of the recent shots taken along our trip, this part being the South Island.
So in the first photo, we can see some Lake at the bottom of a hill in Queenstown. It was a steep up, but well worth the view it provided.
Next up is a picture of the Southern Alps as we made out way from Te Anau to Milford Sound, early in the morning as the fog still lingered around the mountains...
Next we have a shot of the famous Mitre Peak, known in a ton of shots of Milford Sound. It would have been cool to go for a kayak toour around here, but it is pretty cold here in March. A hike around here is impossible unless you book a hut, and the huts were booked through to April. Let that be a lesson to all!
Om our way back from Milford, having done only a small hike, we decided to do the Divide, and up to Key Summit. This is actually the end part of a 3 day hike known as the Routeburn trail. We began on the trail 2 days earlier from the other side of the Alps, while we were staying in Queenstown. Needless to say, the views were better on this end...
Same shot from a bit higher... can't seem to delete it!

Whoa! You two have been gone for 3 weeks and I've only now seen that I can leave a comment here?! Nice....! How ARE you guys? Silly question, as I can clearly see from the entries & pics that you're both having a great time! I'm ecstatic for you both :) And yes, Sid, that's LOTR country for sure. Just beautiful!

I love checking up on you guys via the updates, and it's great that you've been getting all these opportunities to post. Oki doke, I hope they'll let me leave this comment without having a blogger's account.... hmm. Miss you guys, xoxo PS: Jeffrey doesn't believe the Urban Myth that the loo flushes the wrong way by you.. Can you confirm?
