Mount Cook

(Updated to add picture.)

We left Dunedin and headed north along the coast. We stopped at Moeraki to see the boulders, which really do look like they've put there by hand.

We then drove up the Waitake Valley, which has 3 dams and power stations in a row, and on to Mount Cook Village. Unfortunately there weren't enough people wanting a helicopter trip, so that's the one thing we've missed out on this trip.

We were treated to some fabulous views of the mountains as we approached as it has been a glorious sunny day.

Tomorrow we're off to Christchurch, where we drop off the car before heading to our hotel for the last 2 nights in New Zealand.
