Last night we were all tucked up and ready for the major river crossing early the next morning. That proved to be easy and once we crossed in ankle-deep slow-moving river; we had a great laugh. The guide notes is always erred on the side of worst-case scenario and most often it was. Not this day.
And then a looong walk to the road end before a 22km hitch to Te Anau for re-supplies. Becks and Max taught me how to hitch… so much fun. Here is the guts of the tutorial.
We put German Max; a body so nice to walk behind, anyway he was positioned up the road to catch a ride. 😊 He took this pic before he found his position. Becks in charge with coffee in her hand, me posing with thumb out. AND then…. before the next minute a lovely university student stopped for him. He asked if he could add his two girlfriends. Hah love him!
@dkbarnett Exactly Delwyn hitching was way out of my comfort zone. What a great chance for me to share this time with these world travellers. They just expect a ride will turn up and it did.
