Not much to report today as it was 'recovery' day. Got up about 9am for shower and breakfast. I had a few aches and pains but Lorna was walking around like some sort of freakish zombie that had it's legs on back to front! Highly amusing.
Just to punish her a little more, I convinced Lorna to walk to the edge of Milford Sound again for some more great views. The weather was great again today so the views and the waterfalls were at their best.
We had some lunch at the Blue Duck Café before heading back to the lodge to await the Stray bus that was picking us up. The new driver is called Apples - interesting!
We got picked up at 3pm and headed off on the scenic route from Milford Sound to Te Anau. We had a quick shop stop before heading on to Tuatapere.
We arrived at Shooters Backpackers around 7pm and no-one was really up for doing much so a chill out night was called. We met up with Kerrie & Emma again who had been on the bus with us previously. We shared a dorm with Emma and two French girls. Me in a dorm with four birds this time!!
So basically the evening consisted of food, TV and then bed. It was nice to relax for a change. We actually plan to do nothing tomorrow as well so we can rest our aching limbs.
