Reaching Milford Sound

We finally reached Milford Sound at around 9am! We kinda missed some of the stops along the way though :P The weather is so sunny! We thought it would rain since Milford Sound has over 200 rainy days... what are the odd? -_- Actually we wanted it to rain cos' we will then be able to see tonnes of rainbow and mist.. Oh well.. sunny is good for taking pix.. lol

If you are interested to go, I suggest getting one of the pamplets listing the stops along the route. We didn't have one. By the time we see some of the signs, we were just mere seconds away from the stops.. -__-""

I love this place! You'd think that you are in paradise..!


This is the vessel we will be boarding shortly. It looked pretty cool!


Off we go! This LOTR-like scenery appeared before us... *jaw dropping*


The sail was released when we were about to exit the sound as the wind was getting stronger




Sailing back into the Sound once again


Along the way, we saw a few dolphins swimming along our vessel and we also saw some seals resting by some rocks! A rare treat according to our guide. I took video instead, so no photos here.. :P

Another cruise boat passed by us. you can compare the vessel and the mountains to gauge the size of the place. Another group of dolphins were swimming along their boat as well.. :)
