Took a day trip today to see Mount Cook, the highest mountain in New Zealand. It truly was magnificent, snow capped with glaciers below. We took one of the short walks from Mt Cook Village to get a closer look at the mountain and the glaciers. Next to the mountains was another of those bright blue lakes, blue from the rock that has been ground down and carried to the lake by the glacial water. It rivalled the blue lakes of Canada; Lake Louise and Moraine Lake.
