On the road to Glenorchy…

The drive from Queenstown to Glenorchy is not a particularly long one, however while brief it is absolutely spectacular 45 minutes spent gazing at the breathtaking scenery as the car winds alongside lake Wakatipu. Naturally we stopped at several locations along the way to stop and just breathe it all in…and then take photographs!

  1. And lupins they are. the flowers Foxgloves – digitalis – are gorgeous too. but their flowers are in form more like bluebells on a string. 🙂

    1. Ahhh, thank you! I’m no expert when it comes to flowers, but I was struck with how ubiquitous and beautiful the lupins are in New Zealand. With your love of nature and wildlife, you must put this country (and Australia of course!) on your bucket list! Thanks again for your kind comments and for taking the time to look at my blog, I really do appreciate it!
