Rain Forest Glacier

Travelled south today along the west coast of NZ's south island ... Westport to Franz Joseph village. 250 kms took us pretty much all day ... mucho buena vistas and more "highway" driving that seemed more like clinging white knuckled to the side of the precipe than cruising the country side. We were rewarded at days end with a caravan park nestled in what looks like a rain-forest at the base of glacier encrusted mountains. Weird juxtaposition of geography. Tomorrow we head over the Southern Alps ...400kms towards Queenston. Tonight it's scrabble and surfing (the net not the ocean).



Mikaela (chronic poor speller) SMS to Sophie: " I can't believe a beat my mom at scrable tonight."
Sophie (smartest kid in grade 6): "You spelled Scrabble wrong."
