On the road to Milford Sound
Nothing but mountains

Our Boat
We took a cruise around this fjord known as Milford Sound, it was well out of the way but well worth it (4 hour round trip just to get there and back)

More Mountains
The 2 hour boat trip took us up Milford Sound to the Tasman sea and back again.

On the way we saw...
very big mountains, the boat shows the scale.

....waterfalls
our wee boat sailed right under the waterfalls

... and more waterfalls
Cathy reckons there's a wizards face in the waterfall. Can you see it? (i cant)

... and penguins
This time they were fjordland penguins.

A view down the fjord
From the mouth of the fjord on the Tasman Sea.

Cathy looking grumpy
(Where did the penguins go?)

Cable Car in Queenstown
We took the cable car up, spectacular views, but we forgot the camera, sorry!

Queenstown
Adventure capital of the world, you can't move for bungee cords and sky-divers. But its also very picturesque.

Our chosen adventure sport...
Queenstown White Water Rafting

On the river
Not sure what we've let ourselves in for.

Some crazy big rapids lay ahead
And this one was mild. Here's us displaying the 'Hold On' Position.

We're the boat at the back
This is the 'Mother-in-law' rapid. This time it's 'Hold On, Get Down'

All you can see of us is that oar!
By doing the 'Hold on for dear life, Get Down' Position we somehow came through this rapid still afloat and all still in the raft.

Unlike the other group!
