    MILFORD SOUND

    March 9, 2017 in New Zealand ⋅ 🌙 12 °C

    It was very chilly this morning when we left Te Anua for Milford Sound, on the way we stopped to take photos at Mirror lake then boarded the catamaran at Milford Sound to travel down the Sound to the Tasman Sea. Milford Sound is narrower than Doubtful Sound and doesn't have the arms. The Rock walls appeared to be taller but that may have been because of the width.
    We have been very lucky with the weather as the days have been very pleasant.
    From Milford Sound we had to return to Te Anau then back to Mossburn before heading north to Queenstown arriving here around 6pm. Queenstown is built around Lake Wakatipu and getting through the traffic was very slow. The town is very popular with film stars and celebrities who own expensive homes around the shores of the lake. It also has 5 golf courses. We have 3 nights here and a free day on Saturday.
