Day 113 - Arthur's Pass National Park II - this time, in the sun

Trusting to an improved weather forecast (and needing to get the blue car back to Hanmer), we set out to retrace our steps through Arthur's Pass NP. And our optimism was certainly rewarded

with dry clear views of "Castle Hill" (you only get a sense of the size of the rocks when you see a cow in the foregroung)

and of the snow-topped mountains (completely obliterated by cloud yesterday)

and even the keas were in better humour and back to their old tricks, nibbling another motorist's wipers as soon as his back was turned!
