South Island

Stunning crossing from North Island to South Island - calm, sunny and beautiful fiords for the last hour to Picton. Travelled to hot Nelson and then on to whale watching at Kaikoura (from the beach!) Since then we have been doing some bush camping in the Alps and today climbed up to 6000' to Avalanche Summit (first bit of rain though didn't spoil some splendid views) we are now heading down the west coast to explore Fox and Franz Josef - Hoping to do some of the Kepler Track and then Queenstown. Trust you are all keeping warm back at home!!!!
