Your challenge is to do nothing, and enjoy the amazing sights and weather of Wanaka! And this is exactly what we did!

The day after our Franz Josef mission we leave to go to Wanaka, that would normally be okay although my legs won't work as every muscle have seized up and the backs of my legs are bright pink from sun burn so the skin is very tight and very sore. This is not the best state to be in to travel on a bus for half of the day but hey.......

We head out to lake Matheson which is near the Fox Glacier and you can also catch a sight of the famous Mount Cook. We opt out of doing the walk as my legs still don't want to work.

Wanaka is an amazing place, and to be honest we have done nothing apart from sit out and look at the stunning lake and imposing mountain ranges.

Sorry it's a bit boring but money is running low and our old bones beginning to hurt. Only a few pictures but we will be in Queenstown in the next couple of days for our last big adventure.

Enjoy Wanaka and speak to you all soon

PS Just as the saying goes "It's a small world" it really is when we came out of our room in the hostel a girl asks "Are you Jamie"............it was only a girl from Jamie's uni who is now working in Wanaka, was on the same course as Jamie. Damm small world!!
