Once leaving Franz Joseph, we stopped off at lake Matheson and went for a little hike, during this time of day it was a little windy, so it wasn't as mirrored as it usually is. but still quit stunning. this lake reminded me a but of home with the plant life being a little but similar. Still there was a bit more of rainforest type plants and trees. the picture on the top right is Mt Cook poking through the clouds.

slightly like home, isn't>

it?

I couldn't wait until I got to Wanaka so I could stop moving around everyday and have a nice place to stay for a week. Thank you Ros from Red Rock for taking me in..... =)
