Thursday, June 29th - There and back again

After checking in with our meteorologist friend again, we were glad that we postponed the hike as it would have been wet and muddy with cloudy skies at night.  So we will hopefully have another go at the Croesus Track while we are here.  In the meantime, we explored Greymouth for a short time in the morning before heading down the West Coast to do something we do not normally have time to do - check out the amazing blue glacier water at Hokitika Gorge.

Lovely blue glacier water!
Then, it was back across Arthur's Pass with a quick tea time at the top and back in Lincoln by dinner time.

Everyone get a well deserved sleep in tomorrow morning before heading out on our next adventures. Stay tuned, Meryl : )
