On the meandering jungle road back to the main road we have to wait for road workers who remove fallen trees.

Further on we see Fox Glacier in the distance against the mountain, but we do not go there, it takes too much time to take a walk.

The rest of the day we drive along rivers and over a lot of one lane bridges.

In the last part of our trip today we drive with the azure blue Lake Wanaka on our right hand. This ride takes two hours and is breathtaking.

At the end of the afternoon we make our camp on the edge of the lake on a lonely part of the terrain to escape the wind force 8 coming from the lake.
It is windy in New Zealand; wherever you are.
