Trogslog: New Zealand Day 15

So after a late night last night, we were up again early to go to Doubtful Sound - it's a wilderness area inaccessible by road. It was quite a trek to get to - bus ride to get to the boat, boat ride to get to the next bus, bus ride to get to the next boat....3 hour cruise through the fjords...then all the way back again. Quite a tiring day! Well worth it though - we saw lots of seals, lots of beautiful birds including albatross and eagles and some pods of dolphins riding along with the boat. Still haven't seen penguins, but hoping to see them in the next few days as we travel back up the East coast.

First order of the day is obviously to catch up on sleep from the previous day!

Doubtful Sound was beautiful - exceptionally quiet - no engines, no roads....quite often the captain would switch the engines off so we could enjoy the tranquility. Super :-)
