After finishing the Kepler Track we got pies in Te Anau, and then, because we had time and were only 120 km from it we decided to head that way- it rained as we headed out, so the mountains were clothed in mist and the waterfalls were amazing, it was a beautiful winding road into the mountains, we went through a 1km tunnel through the mountains to reach the sound, which was also bathed in mist. However, it did lighten up, the mist cleared and we began to see even a little bit of sky- it was a simply gorgeous sight- I very much enjoyed it. We stayed for an hour or two and then headed back- all the time praying that we would have enough petrol to return to Te Anau and fill up, all in all it was a great ending to the trip.
