Te Anau

Te Anau is a small town of about 2,000 people, and is known as the gateway to the Milford Sound.  It's probably less than 100 miles from Queenstown as the crow files, but it takes about 4 hours to get there by bus.

This marks my first stop at a "holiday park", which is like a KOA campground on steroids.  They are very popular, and this place has 3 kinds of accommodation - tent sites, camper van sites that are powered, and these little single rooms.  I think I paid $30 for a night in this little box.


The holiday parks have shared bathrooms and showers, kitchens, common rooms with computers and tv's, and laundry rooms.  The cool part is that they are all very, very nice and incredibly clean.




This is Lake Te Anau.  It's cold and rainy today.  Heading to the Milford Sound tomorrow, so I hope that it gets better.
