Today's drive round the first half of the Southern Scenic Route, from Te Anau to Invercargill, started fine but the rain came down later. We stopped at the Clifden Suspension Bridge (yes, that is the right spelling). Built in 1899 it was the longest suspension bridge in New Zealand.
We then stopped at McCracken's Rest to eat our sandwiches overlooking a very stormy sea. Then through Invercargill to Bluff and up to the viewpoint there. Unfortunately the rain meant it was hard to see very far.
Tomorrow we're flying to Stewart Island for the day, including a visit to Ulva Island where we hope to see a good selection of birds.
