Milford Sound

November 29

It was a long bus ride to and from, but definitely worthwhile.  Lots of canyons, waterfalls, lakes,

a one way tunnel,

and even a bird sanctuary.

The cruise around the sound was awesome.  Tall waterfalls,

taller cliffs (the photos just do not do justice to the scenery),

and even some wildlife - dolphins who were frolicking in our wake,

seals sunning on the rocks and another odd variety of mammal characterized by its yellow bottom.

We left Queenstown at 8 a.m. and didn’t return till after 9 p.m. but WELL worth it!!
