20050923 Lake Paringa - Greymouth, NZ



Awoke at 10am, sandflies everywhere, little annoying mosquito type creatures that leave bites that itch for weeks. Beautiful view though, overlooking the lake and surrounding mountains behind. Visited the Fox glacier, a huge mass of ice that covers an entire valley.Travelled near the coast over many huge deltas and huge open plains. Had Turbot and chips in Hokitika before heading on to find a place to crash for the night. Ended up on the other side of Greymouth on a beautiful spot on the beach. Fell asleep to the sound of crashing waves.
