Last February, on my wee roadtrip, we stopped off at Knights Point for a wee leg stretch. It was scorchingly hot, not unpleasant, but a bit of a shock after the air-conditioned Pajero.
Someone had built a shelter there. Nice people.
Standing in the shelter you could get a spectacular view down to Jackson Bay. Spectacular.
That's why I took the shot above.
The view was so spectacular it was boring. Especially on such a scorchingly hot blue sky day.
Near the shelter there's also a bike stand cum monument.
It memorialises some feat. So I took a photo of that too.
Andric didn't take any photos.
We then jumped back in the truck and headed to Hasst. Well the main road bypasses the township so we did too, making it to Wanaka about 9.30pm tired, starving and grouchy (mainly due to being tired and starving) due to getting up in Franz Josef at about 6.00am, fitting in a bush walk at Franz, and long walk to Fox and half a dozen walks between Hasst and Wanaka, not to mention lots of photos, and no food since about 11.30am.
Oh it's such a hard life I have. So hard.
