The Drive Back to Christchurch Airport


Heading back to Christchurch we decided to take the scenic inland route. The first stop off point was Rakaia Gorge, a stunning spot and we watched the fisherman fishing for salmon and trout.




Glacial waters again made the river so blue.





Next stop, Lake Coleridge, which we discovered to be the source for a hydro electric power station. The wind was up so big waves on the lake.




The view back down the Rakaia river valley.
