Milford Sound and back to Te Anau

We awoke to birdsong and an amazing view.

Considering the forecast was thunder, it’s rather sunny, though raining somewhere!

Our friend returned too

A chilled morning and then off to the port for our cruise via the Milford swing, of course!

Here she is!

A lesson learnt in the few days we have been here…… don’t believe the forecast. So much for thunder and rain, it was beautiful! An absolute scorcher of a day though thankful to the forecast we had much needed coats for the front of the boat and especially the close up on the falls!

First of the year. With this weather it had to be done!

Back to Te Anau the way we came yesterday. We had to check out the mirror lakes again. How different from yesterday!

The front at Te Anau is very pretty.

A beautiful clear sky tonight, but still no sign of that Aurora
