Day 42: Te Anau: Milford Sound

In the morning I went for breakfast, made a new friend, and headed out to Milford Sound for a cruise with the korean couple. It was a 2 hour drive up to the Fiord, and the views were amazing. There were a lot of interesting stops on the way to Milford Sound too. We decided to pass by some of them on the way back.

On the cruise my new friend I met in the morning was on the same cruise, but I stuck around with my korean buddies most of the time. Ill just let the pictures describe the day...

Milford Sound SEALS 

SEALS! these areas are where the younger seals escape from the more territorial male seals from the main colonies. So educational!
