Mt. Cook

We went for a hike to see Mt. Cook, the highest peak in New Zealand.  It was an easy hike between the mountains with just a slight incline.  We had one(sometimes two) unhappy hiker which made the first couple hours not as pleasant as they could have been but thankfully the rest of the day was much better!

Lots of pictures...

Most of the flowers are finished for the season but we saw a few pretty foxgloves.

We have a new little poser on our hands :)

1 of 3 swing bridges.  Gorgeous views!

Mount Cook

Feeling the water.

Glacier fed lake at the bottom of Mt. Cook.  There was a big piece of the glacier in the middle of the lake and a lot of ice pieces floating around.

Everyone is happy now!

Gorgeous blue Lake Pukaki!
