Lake Tekapo

We did get a bit further away from Christchurch than Akaroa. Three nights at Lake Tekapo was part of a plan to actually do some traveling during the trip.

With Kerri's parents & sister in tow we set off for the Lake. The weather had turned windy, wet & cold. By the time we reached the lake, the wind was howling! The lake even had waves lapping on the shoreline. What had we signed ourselves up for?


 The wind abated a little by the afternoon and allowed us to admire the view from our home for a few days. Other than the obvious views of the lake if over the neighbour's roof, the snow capped mountains completed a spectacular panorama.
 Late in the evening another storm front descended over the lake changing the sunset into quite the show.
