After an eventful start to the day with Rosie nearly missing the bus and us begging the driver to wait for her, using multiple excuses of course (he was not impressed)! We were finally on our way to Milford Sound, it was a long 5 hour journey although we did stop in a cute little village called Tenau, We also had plenty of photo stops along the way, we made sure we were back to the bus at least 5 minutes before we had to go, which the driver found hilarious and by the end of the day he was laughing along with us! The Bus stopped by this freezing cold stream which you could fill your water bottles up at as it had come straight from the glaciers, although we both managed to slip and dunk our foot in the water!
By the time we got to the ferry we were all very happy to be getting off the bus and absolutely starving, on the ferry we were greeted by a buffet lunch which as backpackers we all took to advantage taking bread buns, butter and fruit for later on.
The views from the ferry were absolutely stunning, waterfalls coming off the cliffs, creating rainbows from the sun reflecting off them and seals sunbathing on the rocks. We all slept on the way back to the hostel and arrive back just in time for the quiz, which our team managed to win, mainly due to the fact with had 3 clever guys on our team!
We are now in Cairns and will update you with what we have done in Brisbane soon!
Love Jess and Charlie xx
