The day after our hike, we took a bus to the Milford Sound - one of the many other highlights in Fiordland National Park. The huge fiords were carved many years ago by glaciers and are spectacular.
Even more spectacular was the fact that our bus driver told us that there is sunshine at Milford Sound only 16% of the year. We got one of those days so we once again, felt extremely lucky!
The two hour cruise took us down the fiord to the ocean and back. Along the way, we saw waterfalls, majestic mountains, and some seals and penguins.
We had read that many people who travel to New Zealand thought Milford Sound was one of the top highlights of their trip. We definitely agreed -Milford Sound (particularly on a beautiful sunny day) was something we'll always remember!
