Lying in the sun on the edge of lake Wanaka, relaxing after the days of walks.
Swimming in lake Wanaka.
The lovely mocha. Great coffee, lots of chocolate.

Rob Roy Glacier. Simply amazing. Well worth the walk up.
Seeing two big chunks of ice/snow fall off the glacier and tumble down the mountain, shattering into pieces.
The big huddle of sheep, staring at us.

This teeny tiny organic farm shop. I think it’s roadside sign was bigger than the shop. Super cute.
W pushing me uphill on the last part of the walk. He pushed my hips so I could lean back and basically walk as if it was flat ground.
The ridiculous farm vehicle we passed on the road. It was tall enough and wide enough for a small car to drive under it.

The ridiculous views in Wanaka. This one is up Mt Iron.
Puzzling World. Way better than I thought it would be.
Every now and then glancing out the window in the campsite common room and seeing huge mountains capped in snow.

The clouds. Driving through them and watching them drift up and down the mountains.
Being back in Wanaka.
Warming up in the hot tub.

The beautiful bright yellow tree just outside our campervan this morning.
Stopping at Wanaka lake to take photos. It was gorgeous.
Parking at a DOC site in the middle of a valley with clouds drifting around the mountains, a fire pit on our pitch and a short walk through the mossy forest.
