Our Trip To Fjordland

19-Apr-2000 thru 21-Apr-2000

Fjordland is the south east corner of New Zealand's South Island and was literally carved up by glaciation. It contains Milford Sound, also known as Piopiotahi in Māori.

Our boat to the Te Anu glow worm caves

There were about a billion Taiwanese on the boat and they brought these balloon things that you blow up with a straw (New Zealand, The Travel Addicts, South Island)
