Saddle without a Horse

Wednesday 21st February

Last year I missed out on tramping on one of the great walks – the Queen Charlotte Track around the Malborough Sounds. This year I did not miss on out on one of nature’s wonderlands. Supporting stunning views over the Malborough Sounds this walk was the best ever. We took a water taxi from Picton over to Toreo bay and walked to Mistletoe bay – a good four hour grunt up and down and round about with panormaic views over the Malborough sounds on both sides of the saddle walk. A truely amazing walk – even better to share it with my parents. Invited back to the Tomestone Hostel (dead good) to eat Fish and Chips was a delight after that big grunt. What a fantastic day. I wish all days could be like that.
