Lake Moeraki to Lake Hawea (over Haast Pass) and onto Queenstown

Knights Point overlooking the Tasman Sea	With Joanne and Mark Guralnick	I loved this sign!  Watch out for railroad tracks!	The Haast Visitors' Center
Road view	Sully at the first snack break of the day	Listening to instructions	Atop Haast Pass...neither of us look exactly thrilled, do we?!
Lake Wanaka	Rock rose ... here a pest	Lake Hawea	Self-portrait :-)
That's some trailer	View from our homestay, Glen Dene	"Farmed" red deer	...and sheep
Checking out the sheep wool	Robert with only half of a red deer rack...they harvest the "velvet" and sell overseas	A pre-dinner glass of wine at Glen Dene	Jerry, our host, carving the lamb
Yum!	Next day cycled onto Tarras, where we visited the Shrek Museum (the sheep, not the ogre)	Liza in Erin's rearview mirror...	Beautiful outdoor lunch at Rocky Point Pottery, Cromwell
Just look at that lunch spread...	Post-lunch happiness	Erin of our group getting ready to bungy!	Can you say "swan dive"?
