Hey hey! Breath taking scenery dude in the land of Middle Earth. Long endless highways always leads to something awesome. Feels like orcs, hobbits and elves would come out anytime. I need to see New Zealand at least once in my life. Weekend starts now here and have a great weekend bro.
Thanks a lot @fionasfavourites! That must be your shortest reply yet but understandable seeing as there are no words really to describe what I just wrote about and the words & snaps don't do it justice either!
Definitely a must see! The clouds laying with the mountains make for such a dramatic view, I wouldn't want to leave either. It is absolutely stunning and magical. I thought Maui was the story of Hawaii although I should have made the ties as the Hawaiian people and New Zealand people were the same and just branched off so long ago. (So I've read).
This must really be the heart of new Zealand with having such beauty.
Love the foggy views from the mountains and the paved paths from the forest! I can only imagine how cold it was on that day. Rain is always an obstacle during a trip but without it, we wouldn't see how beautiful nature is in all its seasons! :)
It was actually not too bad temperature wise! The water from that waterfall was pretty cold though haha! I was soaked all the way through but without rain and water, we wouldn't have so much greenery to enjoy!
Thanks for checking this out my friend! Hope all is well little sister!
What a trip… Stunning every inch of the way, of all the places I thought you would stop and hike it was around Milford Sound @nickyhavey!
Did extensive study into south island planning a trip some years ago and getting to the fjord was not quite so accessible, although they offered some tremendous hikes in that area.
Still glad you got to visit, would definitely have a hit with the amazing countryside that is down there, perhaps I am hearing a return trip, one day, so much to do, so little time!
Haha I would definitely do more hiking if (or more likely, "when") I go back to New Zealand and all of the South Island needs me to explore it and hike around haha! Just the cruise this time around though, which was more than good enough :)
Yes there's only one way in to it now and we're at the mercy of nature really. If she decides to landslide, avalanche or anything else then there's not much we can do!
Definitely a return trip. Hopefully steem will rise again and the investment will pay off and can use it all for travel :)))
Milford Sound is in a difficult area to reach, seeing it and enjoying the area you were lucky Nicky, when traveling in tours time is always restricted.
For sure it's difficult when you're against the clock but these tours are always like that. Cram in give you a taste and make you want to come back. It worked for me as I definitely want to go back haha! Next career break I'll be spending a lot more time there I think 😊

I thought you'd like this one meuf 😊 I couldn't believe some of the scenery when I was out there and then the independence day photo 😱
Well all the Moari tribes originate from Polynesia and I guess Hawaii is part of that original Pacific circle of ancestral movement?

You thought right!
Yep they are part of it. I read a bit of history some time ago.
You can be my history buff 😁
