The road down the west coast is often very windy, it’s surprising to see a road train make it around the cornersThe west coast is also very windy, the waves smashing against the pancake rocks were so loudSeals playing in the poolA hungry weka (right) begging for some breakfastNiamh fed and petted some ~100 year old eelsWe stopped off for a hot bath in water from the glacierIt was very windy at Gillespie beach so we had to take the front off the tent. The wind did protect us from the sandflies which ate us alive in the morning. A possum was hanging out in there during the night and rudely did a poo on the roofThe campsite had some great views, could just about see the milky way in the night skyA view of Fox Glacier on the left and Aoraki/Mt Cook on the right
