Lake Wanaka... careful how you type that...

On the way out of Fox we stopped at a place called Blue Pools. It's a 30 minute walk to the clearest blue water you will ever see. The photos don't do them justice at all.



On the way to Lake Wanaka, this is Lake Hawea
We arrived in Wanaka fairly late in the afternoon, perfect timing for sundown over the lake and some cool photos. Finding in a place to eat turned out to be a bit of a pain as the restaurant Lloyd had found seemed to no longer exist despite recent reviews. In the end we settled for a Thai.

The next day we took a walk around one side of the lake and then said good bye to Caroline and Howard as they were off to Te Anau and Milford Sound. Wanting to better our walking exploits from the day before so decidedly climb up Mount Iron. It was worth the effort in
the heat as the views of the Lakes were stunning.
