After our heli-flight back from Milford, we picked up our car & headed up to Wanaka for 2 nights of resting & relaxing. There are two routes to Wanaka & we drove the Crown Range.
Again, I really wished for better weather, but oh well! We ascended into the cloudy mountaintops.
The top of the hill rewarded us with some great views across the valley.
It's always so cool being up above the clouds!
I really want a little place- side of the mountain, river running down below, surrounded by trees.
It's quite a windy, twisty road up to the top, but fun to drive.
I think this is the little town of Arrow Junction, situated just outside of Queenstown.
Looking back, I really wished we'd made time to stop by the bungee jumping & do the proper New Zealand tourist thing.
Once you get past the first 1/3 of the drive, the rest is pretty normal countryside. Still beautiful & it's a very easy/simple drive through the valley up to Wanaka.
GOOD NEWS OF THE DAY: A month late, my office floor is finally getting installed today.
