Friday 25 Jan today, We travelled north along the coastal road the Haast Highway to see 2 lakes, Lake Moeraki and Lake Paringa.

Then we went on further to a salmon farm / café gift shop. here we had lunch and saw an egret looking at the captive salmon. He had no chance of getting one!

Back in Haast we decided to travel back to Roaring Billy waterfall. We had fun photographing macro images of rainforest plants.

When we got to the river we were amazed to find it had dried up over half its width and we could walk over the pebbles to get much nearer to the waterfall. Grandad put the timer on his camera and we took this pic of us in front of the waterfall

Well we move on tomorrow 400 KM to past Greymouth to Reefton. Its a long journey but at least it wont be raining this time.
