The weather this morning wasn't good enough for our 8am helicopter flight, but it cleared enough that we did finally get to see Mount Cook. We were also able to have a good view of the higher part of Fox Glacier, so we feel we didn't miss out too much. We might try for a helicopter trip when we get to the other side of Mount Cook.
When the main road reached the coast at Bruce Bay we were greeted by the extraordinary sight of the whole length of the roadside filled with rock and driftwood sculptures, from simple cairns to very elaborate pieces.
We drove through the Haast Pass, then alongside Lake Wanaka, to get to Wanaka itself. As you can see from the picture the weather has been lovely today after the early cloud dispersed. Tomorrow we drive down to Te Anau ready for our Milford Sound trip.
