The mountains are calling!

27 november 2019 - Mount Cook National Park, Nieuw-Zeeland

We’ve been quiet for a few days due to lack of internet and abundance of beautiful surroundings! After a second day in Dunedin/Otago peninsula we drove to Twizel and Aoraki/Mount Cook

the campsite in Twizel treated us to this cutie who was infamoys for dragging dead baby rabbits to the site and eating them whole for everyone to see 😁

the next day we saw Lake Pukaki for the first time. Blue because of the glacier minerals/dust in the water

We hiked the Hooker Valley track up to the Hooker lake, Mount Cook and the glaciers
