Cruising

In Australia we plan camping trips and long hikes to see beautiful waterfalls. Here in NZ and particularly at Milford Sound they are literally everywhere and with such great volume and height you nearly start to take them for granted.

Today we are cruising the fiord itself. This morning was quite wet and although we couldn't see the tops of the mountains the waterfalls were something to see. We came upon a discounted overnight cruise and it really has been fabulous to come and soak up the scenery. The weather cleared and so we can see the mountain tops. The cruise also has an option to kayak and we spent the most beautiful hour and half enjoying this area peacefully.

In between the cruises we did some short walks and this shot is of the tunnel on Milford Sound road with waterfalls all over it and the car is one of the dots in the foreground.
