Images From New Zealand South Island, Page-1

On the 29th September we flew from Fiji to Christchurch in the South Island of New Zealand. After recovering from being suddenly freezing cold we spent the first week of our NZ section buying thermals and seeking out another van for our travels, an orange Mishubishi this time! This page shows the central mountain ranges and lakes through to the famous Mitre Peak of Milford Sound in the Fjordland National Park.
