Milford Sound (Fiord), Franz Jozef Glacier

More photos from our trip.......... Wellington, capital of New Zealand, will be posted next.

       Early morning departure from Queenstown to a cruise on the Milford Sound 
               New Zealand - Land of the Long White Cloud
Cruising through Milford Sound, really a fiord, was great!


  Our cruise ended at the opening to the Tasman Sea
Leaving for our helicopter ride to the top of Franz Jozef Glacier 
Maddy was very happy - she had the best seat!
Views from the top of the Franz Jozef - most thrilling thing I have ever experienced!
I would love to experience it again!



Beautiful Ocean Road to our next stop - Punakaiki

View of pancake rocks outside of the resort 
I never expected the constant roar of the waves from the Tasman Sea - but it was great!  Sunset from our resort stop on the ocean - lovely!

 
Our driver and Katherine, our tour guide 
Best pics I could get from the bus of the lambs
It was the birthing season - we saw lots of twins and triplets - so precious!
