The weather gods have decided they don’t like us, the result being rain and cold wind. So our first priority this morning was to find a shop selling umbrellas.
Only stop along the way was the Cliften suspension bridge.
There really wasn’t much to see upon arriving at Manapouri apart from rain and cloud covered hills around the lake. We checked in to our caravan park and as it was still raining, decided to drive down to the lake and have lunch in the van. After lunch we drove back to the caravan park and Keiran did some more horizontal practice as he felt that the weather was not conducive to being anywhere but indoors.
Feeling more optimistic about the weather I chose to go walking and was rewarded by sunshine after a couple more showers. Keiran joined me down at the lake a little later and we both took the opportunity to do some photography.
