Heading out from Te Anau was the turning point in our trip, we were headed back; headed back toward Christchurch and our return to Singapore. On the way we made a few stops.
One stop was at this picnic area off the side of the road. It was beautiful. Look how clear the water is. We had a gorgeous day to enjoy being out by the lake.
"Snack"
The we headed to a cute town just 20 minutes outside of Queenstown called Arrowtown. We had a a nice lunch and then walked around the town. We bought some fudge (because it was just that type of town that would sell fudge) and then headed to... all together now... the playground.
Back on the road. Our stop for the night: Omarama where we checked into
our hotel and found
...the playground.
I had an image of what these pictures would look like with the bright colors etc. but they just didn't turn out right. There are some cute girls though..
You can see the difference in scenery from the West coast to the east side of NZ. Still beautiful.
After the playground we walked through the town (it took maybe 10 minutes) and ate at the Wrinkled Rams. On the return trip to our hotel we were able to so so many stars. It was so beautiful.
Although Omarama is not one of the top spots to see in NZ (
except if you are a glider apparently), it was a great place to break up our drive. Next stop: Christchurch.
