You've covered so much ground and have seen a lot over the past couple of weeks and having a blast. The scenery is stunning. I'm not sure how I would handle that. Riding or stopping a lot to snap more photos. Hope the weather improves so you can view Mt Cook<br /><br />bob<br /><a href="http://www.wetcoastscootin.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Riding the Wet Coast</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05258612401956399482noreply@blogger.com
