George. Guide on the Milford boat.


Some amazing clouds on the drive back to Christchurch from Lake Wanaka area.


Peaks above Milford Sound.


Wall and reflection at Milford Sound. We learned that a sound is actually a river gorge backfilled by the ocean and fiord was cut by glaciers. So, it should be Puget Fiord... deep thoughts from NZ.


Milford Sound. Alot bigger than it looks. It was really hard to get a sense of scale here. Most the mountains coming up from the water were upwards of 3-4000 feet!


Brrrrrrrr! On the early morning drive to Milford Sound. We were in a time crunch to get there in time for our reserved boat ride, but the sunrise and scenery were almost too gorgeous to bear not pulling over more than once.


David, notice the hotel name. You have an easy retirement business waiting for you...


Pronounced like "Ethel" with an "A". I know I thought of a bad word too, just like all of you.


My cute cold darling on the boat tour of Milford Sound. A must see in NZ.
