Day 8 - Te Anau - Queenstown (185km) We head north to Queenstown expecting a nice scenic drive along the shore of Lake Wakatipu but unfortunately the weather has other ideas and we are treated to mist, rain and a lake that looks like the North Sea!

Hi Great pictures again the lake especially. Glad you enjoyed the horse ride. Just seems to be one adventure after another that you conquer. Hope the weater improves more like Scottish weather. Graeme

Whooooa!!
Here we are again! Never quite sure what you two are going to be up to next. Must say you look the part on those horses. Simon, you were brave after that donkey ride in Ibiza all those years ago. Will you two please slow down or you won't be able to do Christmas for me when you get home-only joking!! Great talking to you the other night and getting the preview of the dolphins-looking forward to more wonderful pics. The scenery has been amazing in South Island and you adventurous spirit knocks me out. Can't wait to see what up north looks like. Keep clicking!! Have a wonderful time on phase ??? of your trip (I have lost count). All my love to you both, Mum xxx

It's just so purty!
