We made it to our next destination, Fiorland National Park
located in South Island, New Zealand. After
a short two-hour drive from Queenstown, we were up for the next challenge to go
hiking on the mountain!
The trail was called the Key Summit Alpine Track, and took a
total of four hours to climb. The
scenery was amazing, and got colder as we reached the mountain’s peak!
We reached an altitude of 919 meters (3,015 feet)! When we finally made it to the top, we
realized what a rewarding climb it was.
The pictures we took are ones we will treasure forever…we were up so high
that we were in the clouds, which you can see in the pictures!
We are excited for the adventures tomorrow will bring, as we are going horse back riding through the farms, mountains, and valleys!
Stay Tuned,
Nicole
Every day a new adventure!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy you are taking me along to this gorgeous park.
I loved this outing. And Just came to my mind the words of a very popular song of years gone by, that go something like this: "I'm sitting on top of the world, Just rolling along, Just rolling along! and I'm quitting the blues of the world, Just singing a song, Just singing a song." -- By the way, I am actually singing the song as I write this message to you.
Love you both,
Baba
