Lake Pukaki Again

driving down to Queenstown now. Mount Cook only came out from the clouds for a few seconds. Its much cloudier today. Weather forecast is bad. Long drive through twisting mountain passes in heavy rain, could be fun. Anyway, stopped to take one last look at Lake Pukaki.

Lake Pukaki

Driving from Kaikoura to Mount Cook takes you past lake Pukaki. Its an unusual colour. With the Southern Alps behind its wonderful sight.

To get to Mount Cook you have to drive along the length of the lake. The road goes over a couple of single lane bridges. Its all quite spectacular.
