P4R4W0: Venturing into the snow (Holiday!!)

I returned home to Waimate over the week break, stopping in Hokitika to visit my sister, aunt & uncle. On the way we stopped to walk over the longest swing bridge in  New Zealand, caught some glow worms in Hokitika, carved some Greenstone and popped up to the Devils Punchbowl in Arthur's Pass.

My attempt at a greenstone knife


Once in Waimate we went for a quick walk / run, enjoying the sunshine. We decided that it would be good to catch some snow... and because I like tramping, what better place to visit than Mt Cook. We also stopped in Tekapo and Kakanui for some day adventures.
