te anau/milford sound


this is the little boat we rode on our tour of milford sound. we purchased our tour through our b&b owner, as one whole package,a nd didn't have an option of picking a specific size boat for the tour. theoretically, the small one was much better than taking the larger ships with the full bars & snack shops, because it was easier to get closer to wildlife. in reality, i (and my stomach) would've much preferred the larger, impersonal boats, because they didn't rock as much. although it was freezing, i had to spend the whole trip on the top outside deck because the motion was too much inside, down below. and the crew wasn't sympathetic to those with bad stomachs. they seemed to find it amusing that people got seasick. hmmph!

maybe we should've taken the fact that it was a "three-hour tour" on a little boat as a sign....
