Waterfalls and the ocean
October 21, 2023 in New Zealand ⋅ ☁️ 55 °F
We drove from Wanaka to Fox Glacier today. As usual, it was another absolutely beautiful drive. We stopped at numerous waterfalls and did a couple small hikes. The water is so clear and turquoise blue. We eventually made it to the west coast of Australia - basically on the other side of the mountains from a few days ago.

The campgrounds we stay at have lots of fun things - ping pong, fuzz ball , air hockey, and today a giant chess board. Been fun playing around.

Christie MitchellBig planes were coming in (international airport) not just small ones. Turning and then landing on that little strip. Once we got up there, the planes stopped and we didn’t get a video of it. But it was pretty amazing.

Christie MitchellIt is! Which was surprising to see such huge planes coming in. Not just little Cessnas
