It occurred to me that I could post photos of the South Island rather than trying to describe the landscape.
The view from the road in front of my hotel.
View from my hotel room, 5:23 PM.
View from the Kaikoura lookout.
I am in Christchurch until the end of the week and then the academic portion of the trip comes to a close. After Christchurch we have two days in Queenstown to do tourist activities--right now I think I'm going to do a trip where you bike down a mountain into a canyon and then raft out of the canyon. Hopefully the sun will be shining next Sunday--it was below freezing in Queenstown yesterday so if it is sleeting next weekend I don't know how I'll feel about biking. After Queenstown we spend one night seeing the glaciers at Franz Joseph and then two nights in Arthur's Pass in the Sourthern Alps and then it is time to go home. I am ready to be how but am also amazed at home quickly the end of the trip is upon us.
