Milford Sound

We left Dunedin at 5 AM to drive to Milford Sound. We arrived there at around 11:30 and had a 1:30 cruise through the sound. The drive up there was absolutely breathtaking. We saw the most amazing sunrise I have ever seen followed by some pretty incredible rainbows. We took a million pictures before we even got to the sound! The mountains were huge and the water is just so blue. Since we were there early, they put us on the earlier cruise. Kelsey and I were taking pictures when I looked over and saw some of our friends! We didn't even know they were there and had not talked to them since we left Auckland! It was totally weird that we were on the exact same cruise as they were. We had a good time catching up and enjoying the beautiful Milford Sound. We drove the boat under waterfalls and saw a lot of seals laying on the rocks. We got back from the cruise and immediately jumped in the car, heading for Queenstown. It was an amazing day!
