Fiordland National Park

 

We took a boat ride through the Fiordland National Park which is one of the biggest fiord areas in the world.  Fiords are defined as steep glacier carved mountains that connect to deep lakes that ultimately connect to the ocean.

We had an unusually cool, snowy day but we made the most of it and loved the journey.  I think if I were to do it again I would go on an overnight boat cruise so I could also see the fiords in their dynamic colors at sunrise and sunset.  And see the stars at night with no competing light.  Oh well…next time.
