Road to Milford Sound

We treated ourselves to a rather pleasant, and completely sandfly free tour boat excursion through the Milford Sound. Milford Sound, dubbed the eighth wonder of the world by Rudyard Kipling, is generally considered New Zealand’s most famous tourist attraction.

Here are a few pics we took on the drive to the sound …

This is called Mirror Lake … for obvious reasons
Next three pics are all of the same falls, as it cascades down the canyon.
The road burrows strait through and under the big rock face in this pic. Quite the engineering marvel …
Canary in the foreground : )
New Zealand fur seals in the background.
Super small & cute. Actually about the size of a large California otter.
Head of the Milford Sound …
