An early rise today, which means the tent is still half wet when we pack it away<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

And there are a lot of sheep on the Te Akatarawa Road from Fishermans Bend to the Benmore Dam<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

The Clay Cliffs, I’ve been here many times before<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

but it’s always worthy of a visit<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

But hey! What is that!? Beautiful scenery destroyed by an absolute eyesore!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

They ruined it all by putting a dumb stupid unnecessary sign smack in the mibble here. Only OSH<\/a> could approve of something insane like this<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Luckily the view towards Omarama and Mt Horribler is still as good as ever<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

But why did we have such an early start? Because Rachel is going gliding today with no less than Justin Wills!<\/p><\/div>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"

It’s a late birthday gift for Rachel, flying with the legend<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

Rachel took these photos whilst flying in RW, this is above the Lindis Pass coming from the Dunstan Range<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

The Lindis Pass looking west, unfortunately not long after Rachel started feeling unwell, something that often happens to people not used to flying gliders, especially as a passenger<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

So the flight is cut short and Rachel and Justin head back towards Omarama, here are the Clay Cliffs again that we visited a few hours before<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

RW on finals for runway 27. Despite having to cut the flight short Rachel had a great time, many thanks to Justin Wills!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"

And that was our holiday. On the way back to Christchurch a last photo of Mt Cook, we look forward to our next visit to this wonderful part of the country!<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
