Fjordland National Park

Milford Sound

-17 °C

By far the most beautiful place so far is the far south of the south island. Probably some of the most increadable things I've ever seen the scale of the massive rockwalls and water falls is undiscribable. the drive out from queenstown gets prettier and prettier along these river valleys.

I don't knwo what type of flowers these are but they vocer the floors of the valleys making them all purple and pink until teh grey and white of teh mountains

once you go under this massive tunnel to get to the actual sound you drive through these huge canyons to get to the ocean. It was raining and the snow melts make the water falls poor from everywhere.

then you get to the ocean and the fjord is unbelievable. It wasn't even a nice day and its so cool

I wish I had come down here for the whole time, would have avoided some less fun things and would have had more time to explore the other fjords and canyons. I'm glad I'm not around to stress you out Ellen, you know how I always hated doing that.
