Road Trip: Day 6 - St Arnaud

Today, the morning was quite uneventful: I read a few comics that I had found in the Games/TV Room, ate breakfast, had a shower, and then up and away in the car, towards Nelson Lakes National Park, home to many mountains, including Mount Franklin (a trusted name in the household, but we aren’t thinking about the water brand), and glacial lakes.

When we got there, we took a long hike along the Honeydew track, then accidentally turned into the Lakehead track until we reached a flooded brook. Niklas attempted to find a crossing, but Mum said it wasn’t worth it, so we went back the way we came and decided to follow the much shorter Bluebird trail. After dinner, we took another walk, this time in search of Kiwis (real ones though). This took us along the Honeydew track, but we didn’t turn off into the Lakehead track but this time followed the Honeydew for its full length.

P.S. It was 10 o’clock when we got back; I’m lucky Mum let me still write!
