Big Trip

Had to be up at the unholy hour of 0630 again for breakfast at 7 this morning. The boat motors out to the Tasman sea, and things get a bit uppy downy then, so keeping plates still is a problem, apparently. More of the same beautiful scenery with breakfast, and then we all went up on the bridge and chatted to Ray, the skipper while he took us to Sterling Falls, and put the bow of the boat so close to the falls that you could almost feel the spray on the bridge. Of course, Max & Erin had their spell in the skipper's chair, and then it was back to the terminal. Definitely an excursion I'd recommend as it was so relaxing. The crew were all extremely friendly, and accommodating, and Max was pretty well catered for, too.
Then we headed off for another day's driving up to Queenstown. Yes, more scenery, more lakes (Wakatipu) & mountains.
