| Morning = Rainforest |
What a difference in the scenery on this island. This morning we set off from Haast driving through rainforest, with the road like a tunnel flanked by palms, ferns, and green of every color.
As we neared Wanaka the views opened up to bright turquoise waters of Lakes Hawea and Wanaka.
Then, a stretch of our drive in late afternoon heading towards Aoraki Mt. Cook, turned into huge, open expanses of brownish-green reminding us of dry, desert mountains (this area is called the Lindis Valley).
In between everything described above, as well as any other drive previously, or yet-to-be mentioned, the views return to farm landscape with sheep dotting the hills.
The pictures posted in this entry are all taken on roads we traveled today!
