Te Anau

Made it to Te Anau (Tayownow)

It was quite a drive South from Wanaka. I did get a picture of the famous Wanaka Tree before we left. 

We went down a really steep road into a gorgeous valley. This road had guardrails. Good thing as you could just drive off the side of the road. 

We got a bit of rain on the windy stretch of Hwy 6 near Lake Wakatipu & Kingston.  Obviously didn't get any pics here as I was watching the road. 

Here's some on the road to Te Anau. Lots of trees, some hills, lots of sheep & deer. 

Our hotel is Radfords on the Lake. Very nice room w/ little kitchenette. 

Here's their site.

View from our room:

We are going to walk to town for a drink & dinner. Tomorrow we are taking a Wilderness Cruise to Doubtful Sound - an all day excursion through Real Journeys. See here.

Here's a little map to show where we are.
