On Wednesday morning we left Franz Josef in (frustratingly) brilliant sunshine. However the trip to Wanaka, via Lake Matheson with incredible views of the Fox Glacier, almost made up for yesterday's bad weather. Actually I didn't make the bus because I thought pick up was at 8.15 and I was staying at a different hostel from everyone else so had to get a taxi to meet the bus at Lake Matheson. Ouch.
We ended the day at Wanaka which is the smaller sister ski station town of Queenstown (where I am now). The reason I'm wearing shorts in the photo (it was freezing) was that our driver (Bods) told me you can feed dolphins in the lake (!) but that you have to wade in to feed them. And I believed him until I walked out of the door and realised I had been well and truly had. In justification I thought (and semi still think) it is not a land locked lake.
