Simply cycling around
I’m on the way to Milford sound today. I let my tent and some stuff to the doc campsite to be as light as possible and make my way up easier. I’m on the top of the first big hill and the next one, to reach the tunnel, is much higher. Should be OK :-)
Ouhaaa! We had a good peaceful night and I could sleep 2 hours more but the boat has to be ready for the next group and they told us that If we stayed longer in the bed they we come and do the bed with us inside! I didn’t want to try so wake up! It’s 7:30 :-)
Here we are! The first day off our Doubtful sound trip :-) it’s going to be amazing! The weather is not to bad and we will pass the night on the boat and we should do some kayaking today or tomorrow :-)
We have just left the “Real Journey” centre with Wenshan where we bought our ticket for one overnight cruise in Doubtful Sound! I’m excited to do that together because it will be certainly a great experience :-). And we are lucky because we are in off season since one week. When I was in Queenstown, I asked the price for one day cruise to for the same place and it was 270$! But then, today we’ve paid 254$ for two! Isn’t that nice? Yes it is! Tickets in our pockets, we are now ready for a visit because the trip is going to start tomorrow morning at ten o’clock. The lake Te Anau looks smooth and quiet this morning.

A very wonderful trip, I loved it!
This night was cold, very cold. I was limit limit in my sleeping bag and I can feel the with the winter coming! I opened my tent this morning and : What a sky! So blue! My tent is covering by a thin layer of ice and I can’t find a way for reheat my fingers. Every two minutes I have to stop packing my stuff and make a break front of the sun because my hands are so cold!
This night was raining and it still the same now. I’ve kept my food next to me this night so I don’t need to move outside :-) I hope the weather will be better in few hours… Fortunately I’ve got something to read : “20000 leagues under the sea” by Jules Vernes. I’ve started with “80 days around the world” and then “Travel to the centre of the earth” and now I’m reading a third one :-)
