Kea on the Gatorwaka's rearview mirror, Arthur's Pass |
Devil's Punchbowl Falls, Arthur's Pass |
After becoming
regulars at Maggies in Greymouth, we headed back toward Lincoln across Arthur’s
Pass. We stopped in Arthur’s Pass proper
and enjoyed up close and personal time with the Kea, alpine parrots, before
taking in a hike to Devil’s Punchbowl Falls.
Castle Hill, Arthur's Pass |
After we had lunch and drove on to Castle Hill, a spot popular with rock
climbers for its beautiful limestone
formations. The pass was clear and only
the peaks of the mountains had snow. While we are not complaining about the
warmer winter, we are sure the skiiers are not thinking this, but we were happy
for yet another spectacular day!
Cheers, Mark and Meryl
Doh! We pass through a town called Springfield on the way back to Lincoln. Home of the Simpsons? |
