East to west drive via Arthurs pass

We woke up to a rainy south island east cost, with no cellphone reception to check the weather elsewhere. We started driving west in the hope that we will have better luck weather wise.

We drove through Arthur's pass which is renowned for its scenic views of the so called southern Alps, but we saw only the foot of the mountains and rain clouds.

After 6 hours of driving we arrived at the west coast where the sun was shining. We could only look back and see the beautiful mountains behind us. Its a shame we did not get to see it in the pass, some you win some you lose I guess.
