Southern Scenic Route

We woke up and packed up in time to go see the movie about the fiordlands, Ata Whenua Shadowland, suggested to us by our kayaking guide. A helicopter pilot shot the movie in conjunction with some of the crew of the LOTR movies, then the theater was build in Te Anua, just for the movie!

So we headed on our way down the Southern Scenic Route. It was ridiculous! We got SO lost because it wasn’t well marked! I think we wasted at least an hour trying to get back on track! In any case, we got to check out pretty places like Purakaunui Falls and Nugget Point. It was all very beautiful, but a long drive.
