Queenstown to Westport

From queenstown we headed north through wanaka again up to franz joshef. We stopped off at various waterfalls, nice lakes / mountains on the way!! Our first full day there was very wet so we decided not to walk to the glacier, instead we went to the hot pools and stayed in our room reading books etc.

The next day we went for a walk to the glacier, we couldn't get that near cos it was supposedly dangerous, but we took loads of pics and did some hiking!

In the afternoon we drove to hokkikata again stopping off at waterfalls / nice views. We stayed in a very nice hostel by the sea. This morning we drove to westport again stopping off at nice views, including some cool rocks called the pancake rocks, and also these blow holes which fired water into the air from the waves.

Now we are in a hostel in westport and are heading to the abel tasman national park tomorrow, wer we may do some walking and kayaking.

Hope your all well.

Josh
