On Friday evening, after seeing a short scenic movie about Fiordland, I went to see the Glowworm Caves on the other side of Lake Te Anau. The caves were quite impressive, masses of water rushing through them, and the glowworms pretty – as long as you don’t look at them too closely, that is. \ud83d\ude42 I’ve seen more glowworms in the Waitomo Caves in the North Island, but it was a very nice way to spend the evening.<\/p>\n

The best bit, though, was that it started snowing just as we got back – and in the morning everything was white and lovely. It was the perfect day for the trip to Doubtful Sound, which turned out to be incredibly gorgeous! First a boat ride across Lake Manapouri, then an excursion down the powerstation there, before we rode a bus through the mountains and snowy forests to Doubtful. The cruise couldn’t have been any better – we even saw a school of dolphins at play. Simply an amazing day, and I ended it by watching a couple of movies in our dorm room with two German girls.<\/p>\n
