Way South

It's been a while since last entry. In the last three weeks we've visited lovely Wellington, crossed the Cook Straits and camped in the Abel Tasman Peninsula. From there we've wandered down the west coast of the South Island through beautiful Nelson Lakes, the Buller River Gorge and down to Glacier Country - the Franz Josef and Fox glaciers to be exact. From there we crossed the Southern Alps once again through the exquisite Haast River Valley Pass to to Te Anau, the gateway to our paramount destination - Fiordland. We are presently forest-camped at the head of Milford Sound and preparing for a boat trip through the sound to the sea. Awesome!
