Te Anau

A rare site...beautiful blue skies!

Sheep are everywhere in New Zealand. The ratio of sheep to people is twenty to one. New Zealand annually exports 150,000 tons of wool. Scattered along the mountains while grazing in beautiful green pastures, it was always a beautiful site.









By far, one of the coolest things I saw was the Te Anau Glow Worms. The entrance of the cave required us to bend down and "watch our heads", as our tour guide instructed. Walking through the cold cave on a suspended walkway, we made our way to a boat. Our tour guide propelled the boat through the underground river by putting their hands on the protruding rocks. It was pitch black. But as I looked up, the ceiling was covered with countless glow worms. These blue-green specks were so close I could have touched them. This was on of the most beautiful and breath-taking things I have ever seen. The majesty of God was so clear to me while gazing at His creation.
