Mt Cook

After camping by Lake Dunstan, we drove to Mt Cook. We took about 3-4 walk to the glacier. The views were amazing, but it was quite cloudy, so the pictures weren't coming out that great.

After the walk, we started driving back and managed to find this huge picnic spot by Lake Pukaki close to Twizel town. That was the spot to open our Ata Rangi bottle. So we just sat there starring at the Mt Cook view and enjoying the sun. It was definately a special moment.

After the coffee in the morning, we looked into our itinery and decided to go to Banks Peninsula as we had couple extra days. I was quite sad to leave and thinking about it we should have stayed at that spot a little bit longer. That's another spot that I intend to go back to
