South Island Trip Day #10

ANTICLIMACTIC DAY!!!!!!!!!

Pretty much everything we did this day just sucked. When we were in the car, the sun was out and it was nice and beautiful but as soon as we stepped out, it was windy and raining. Pretty much, New Zealand just hated us this day.

Now for the list of uneventful stops:
1. Slope Point- The most southern point of the south island of New Zealand. It was pretty cool, but windy and cold and raining.

2. Waipapa Point- Went here to see sea lions...... FAIL

3. Fossil Forest- just a bunch of stairs leading to the beach...... WTF?

4. Niagara Falls, NZ- nothing like the Niagara Falls in NY, not that I've ever been, but this was a couple rocks in the middle of a stream. The guy who named it, thought it would be funny after seeing the monstrosity of the falls in the US.

5.McLean Falls- the falls that should have been named Niagara Falls, NZ because at least there was a waterfall.

After those 5 uneventful stops we decided to quit for the night, so we drove around to find a place to park and it was raining and we were driving on a scary gravel road that was close to the ocean and once again Sarah has terrible night time car etiquette so Becca forces her to sing Disney songs :)

We parked close to Jack's  Blowhole so we could go the next morning even though it would probably be uneventful because we got their the night before and we literally had the worst night of sleep humanly possible. It rained and was freezing and I'm pretty sure that it even hailed at one point in the night.


Holy crap.... it was just a terrible day!!!!
