Milford Track – Photos (Day 2)

Milford Track (Day 2)

I’m good to go off 8hrs of sleep (well typically even less). So hitting the sack at 9 the night before would have me jumping out with the early birds. Early birds? Where are the early birds? They are always there when you don’t need them, but in this case I’m lying awake and counting down the minutes (Well actually, I think my bladder was the one counting down the minutes). So by 7am my bladder gave up and got me up and out whilst my beloved Jenny was still blissfully sleeping!

The Milford Track – “The finest walk in the world”

After gathering last minute supplies in Te Anau (The local supermarket was obviously cashing in on trampers with every conceivable concoction of nut mixes anyone could imagine! Took us 10 min choosing one and ended on selecting 2 for snacks along the track). We headed down to the DoC (Department of Conservation) to pick up our bus, ferry and hut tickets for the walk and discovered I had double booked the bus trip from Milford sound at the far end. Better than no booking. In any case they had no problems refunding the extra booking.

Te Anau, NZ

Well folks, surprise, surprise… We are back into it! If your poison was simply to follow us on our Camino adventure, then now is your chance to bail out. (unfollow us, or whatever you have to do). Otherwise feel free to see what unfolds on our next “little” adventure. We say “little” as this adventure takes place on our “doorstep” (New Zealand) rather than across the other side of the world in Europe and will only last 14 days 😦 not 8 weeks! Also, rather than covering 800km (Ok 800km minus the 20 we cheated by catching a cab!). We will be lucky to cover 100km over 2 walks. The first being the famous Milford track (4 days) and the second being the Routeburn Track (3 days). The latter is highly recommended by the locals and some say is even better than the Milford (We’ll have to see about that!). Read more
