New Zealand Part 3

On the 3rd day Cat and I headed down to Milford Sound. Ironically Milford Sound is actually a fiord, which is a deep valley cut out by a glacier. The drive down to Milford takes about 2 hrs and is probably the best drive I have ever done. The drive consists of high peaks with flowing waterfalls everywhere.

1 sheep, 2 sheep , 3 sheep ...... ummm lost count.



2,500 feet straight up o_O


This bird was so aggressive and kept eating my rental car.


Cat and I stayed the night in this hostel down in the middle of the fiord. This is the only place within a 2 hr drive. Good thing we filled up on gas and food before coming.


We took a cruise out into the fiord and they stick the boat right into a water fall.


The next day all the clouds blew, leaving a great view before we head out for our 7 hr drive to Franz Joseph.
