Milford Sound

Alright, here are a couple of picture posts of the last few things I did before I got back up to Auckland! First, Milford Sound. Which is actually a misnomer, as a sound is a riverbed that the sea has eventually flooded. It's ACTUALLY a fjord, which is a part of the sea that's had land raised up through it. *pushes nose bridge of dorky glasses*

HERE WE GO

There's no way to show the scale of this place. Just imagine craning your neck up and STILL not being able to see the top very well.


There are so many waterfalls!

Here's the bottom of one...


Here's the famous Miter Peak, which is apparently the most photographed mountain in New Zealand!
Just. Beautiful.
