Our next destination Fox Glacier we headed off early in the morning as there was lots to see on the way
First stop Punakaiki Tavern to take a photo of this Horse and Dray
Then on to Punakaiki Pancake Rocks
There is a walkway for you to follow around the coast looking at the rocks that look like stacks of pan cakes hence the name
The views were just amazing
Next stop Greymouth for some lunch and a leg stretch
when wandering around we found this mural and they had a great town clock
Then on to Hokitika
When found the word Hokitika spelt out in driftwood which had been damaged in a storm that hit the west coast and the locals had put it back together as best as they could
we also found these crazy chairs
Driving on we came to the town of Ross which used to be a goldmining town
A sluicing wheel
I found myself in the stocks again
We arrived in Fox Glacier booked into our cabin then went for a drive to look at the Glacier
and we found it had to be from a distance as the road up to the Glacier walk was washed out in the storm but we still were amazed by it
More adventures tomorrow
Have a great day
