The first day was definitely one of my favorites. There is always such excitement and anticipation at the beginning of a trip and because we were pretty unsure what to expect, every turn brought on a whole new "WOW" and "DAH stop the car!" Especially once we realized we were driving directly through the Southern Alps. We stopped severall times to take pictures and I'll never forget the first curve we made when the snow capped mountains were waiting for us standing tall! As we continued down the road to Arthur's Pass National Park we passed by a beautiful farm that had a gigantic boulder field along the one side. We parked the car and played around on the boulders for about an hour. The rocks were so huge and picturesque with the mountains in the backdrop. My favorite one looked like a praying fox and I totally thought of Katie and Grant because you could climb a lot of the bigger formations. Happy with the warm and sunny day we continued along until we reached the park where we found a nice nook on the side of the road to camp. We had a pretty spectacular view that night too. A really nice start to the trip.
