<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"So, I was offline for two days. From Te Anau, my last post within mobile network range, I took the Milford Road to Milford Sound. Surprisingly enough, there is no mobile phone coverage along the road. Thus, I was offline. Fair enough, there is so much to see.<\/p>\n
The first day, Saturday, I just drove to the first camp site. I stayed at Henry Creek for the night. A beautiful spot near Lake Te Anau. My camper was parked under the trees.In the evening, the wind really freshened up quite a bit. At least it kept the sandflies away. The night was bright and clear (unlike tonight) and I could see the stars again. This time, I just enjoyed the view without taking any pictures.<\/p>\n
On Sunday, I drove to Milford Sound and back – just about half way. I will spend the night at Cascade Creek.
\nEven though the road ist only about 120km one way, I enjoyed having time for frequent stops along the road, view points and a couple of short walks. (Missing the bug repellant though\u2026)
\nThe nature is beautiful. Mountains, waterfalls, lakes – I am not really able to capture it all in pictures.
\nStill, here are a couple of snapshots and impressions from the last two days.<\/p>\n
As I am writing this post on Sunday evening I sit in my camper while the clouds are getting thicker. It\u2019s getting dark soon and it looks like there is rain ahead. We\u2019ll see.
\nTomorrow – or today, Monday, – whatever you prefer, I am heading towards Queenstown. Charging the batteries at the camp site, refuelling and so on. I have decided on the route for the next couple of days and when within cell phone range, I might even set a date for the ferry crossing.<\/p>\n
Enjoy the images. As always, click to enlarge.<\/p>\n
PS: A few stars were visible last night. So, before the clouds covered the whole sky, I tried another shot. It still doesn’t compare to standing out in the open, though…<\/p>\n
