Today was the first real day of travelling around the South Island. But first we found Ruben. He is a Danish student at Otago with Jo, and we welcomed him aboard for a few days travelling with us. We haven’t quite mastered Danish yet, but he puts us to shame with perfect English.
Then we headed south and found Eileen her favourite beach so far. Near Nugget Point (see below).
Nugget Point is just some spectacular rocks and will be as far south as Eileen and I are ever likely to be in our lives. Jo is more ambitious – perhaps starting with Stewart Island and maybe even Antarctica one day.
Then a pretty long drive to Te Anau, but found our house to be idyllic ..
.. And sunset over the lake to end the day.
