We ventured out to Tekapo today just an hour from here and a place that we have been many times, although never with as much snow! The drive there was fantastic with each summit and bend opening a new unbelievable vista. WG loved it! firstly just the word 'snow' had him in fits of giggles. We dragged him around and sat with him on some of the slopes in the sledge. He doesn't seem to enjoy the fast slopes too much, but we do.
The cloud came in a little and we went for a cuppa in the Mount John Observatory. It was beautiful up there. We could see 360 degrees of snow covered mountains and to the East there was a blanket of cloud below us. WG took full advantage of the busy cafe and introduced himself to everyone and decided to try out a ladies walking poles.
I hope that you enjoy the pictures.....
