Onward to Mount Cook

Woke up bright and 'early' at 9 am to make our way from Twizel to Mount Cook. The sunrise awaiting us at the Motel Office was spectacular and we spent some time taking photos. It was our 3rd day in New Zealand and our first morning out in the embrace of its natural 'wilderness'. Boy, was it different from any other morning I've have had, at Ubin or elsewhere. The frost on the ground, in the air, the low sun and the rows of evergreens...

Got on our way around 10+ am and reached Mount Cook about 11 am.
