It looks like it’s going to be another beautiful but very warm day, Morgan’s Island in the foreground and in the distance the Ben Ohau range where I normally fly my glider
Mt Cook looking great today
The Pukaki High Dam
Where water flows out of the lake
and a little further downstream into the Pukaki River which in turn flows into Lake Benmore
And this is Lake Benmore and it’s hot and we’d like to cool off
And so we do, what a lovely refreshing swim that was
We continue our track further south, down Falstone Road, just to see what’s there
And it’s beautiful!
Lovely little beaches
Lots of ducks
These funny looking things
Time for a nap in the shade, the great thing about this car is that is has so much space, this is the first time we were able to fit those chairs in the car and they are soooo relaxing
The road ended at some farm and so we had to turn back, this is one of the little bays at Lake Benmore on the drive out again
This was such a lovely area. And you’ve managed to make the tree ladder lake look semi inviting
