March 24-27: Wanaka

Wanaka is like a calmed-down Queenstown- same kind of scenery, a large glacial lake surrounded by dry mountains. Way less of the commercial tourism.
The Rob Roy Glacier track was amazing, although a long, slow gravel road to get there.
Rocky Mountain was a solid climb, but a hell of a view- apparently Shania Twain's ranch is in that picture somewhere.
The campsite on Lake Hawea was one of those amazing holiday parks with a million dollar view, and we were able to park right on the water. We had a quick swim in the lake, but its starting to cool off this time of year, its not summer anymore!
