WOW! We left Dunedin this morning and headed to Milford Sound. No words or photos can explain the beauty and wonder here. Technically, these are Fjords and not sounds, but does it really matter?

We were on an overnight ship that sleeps about 50. We were offered the chance to kayak or go out of a small boat to explore. We took the kayaks. Luckily, we changed into our swim bottoms as we did get pretty wet with the oars. 48°F both in the water and outside. We know this first hand as we also took the opportunity to jump off the boat into the water for a swim. Seize the day!! Then a warm shower and red wine!!Okumaya devam et

So today is Sunday, and I was up and out on the deck before the sunrise. There is no better place to praise God than when surrounded by his beauty in the place. So quiet. So peaceful. So amazing. I spent several hours on deck as we sailed out into the Tasman Sea. We saw penguins, dolphins, birds, and seals. We watched the sun coming up, and the blue sky developed. It was much different than the rains here yesterday.
We will load the bus and head to Queenstown. Great visit!!!Okumaya devam et

I'm still amazed at the beauty! Our hotel room looks out over the Wakatipu Lake.

We started our day with a tour about town and then a stop and personal tour of the Queenstown fire station. They took us for a firetruck ride around the town. It was awesome, especially when we passed the people from our tour group. 😉

We then went on a jetboat tour of the Dart River. It is a river flowing from the glaciers and melting snow caps. It flows into the Wakatipu (or Whakatipu) Lake. It is very rocky and shallow, but the boats are made for that! They can run in as little as 6 inches of water. They took us on a trip into MIDDLE EARTH (where many scenes from the movies were filmed).

We then ventured on our own and took a trip up the gondola to the top, about 450 meters. Breathtaking views.

We are capping off our evening with a high-end local butchery restaurant.
The skies are finally clear, so we will try to spot the southern cross tonight!!Okumaya devam et

Well, the dream trip is coming to an end. We went by bus this morning to a place called Arrowtown. It is an old historic gold mining town. It has a wild west feel about it. It is very frustrating that cars are allowed to park on both sides of the street, so there are no good photos. We tooled around town for the afternoon, and Brian completed his New Zealand beer goals.

We ended the day with a farewell party where our tour leader went one person at a time and highlighted each person's influence on him and the tour. Very nice. Then, we had an impromptu dance from one of our couples followed by another impromptu dance by our tour leader. I haven't laughed so hard in a while.

We then took a steam ship over to Walter's Peak Farm for dinner and a sheep show.Okumaya devam et

But not without one more adventure!

I decided to try paragliding! Why not? So we took the transport up to Coronet Peak! Brian was allowed to go as a spectator.

We ended up waiting 2 hours and 15 minutes for the clouds we were in to lift! Rules are you have to see a landing zone before you can go. Once it cleared, we started. I was the last of the 5 to run off the cliff.

I swear to you, it was peaceful and no anxiety. Run when he says run, and you just float away! ( my panic day was yesterday )

We are now preparing for our 28 hour journey home. Queenstown to Auckland to LA to Dallas to Cincinnati...ughhhh.Okumaya devam et
