NZ Travelogue Day 13

Wanaka
Wanaka is Otago's second resort town after Queenstown. 

 A trip to Puzzleword is highly recommended. Full of optical illusions.
 I was really fascinated by the walls of faces which turn as I move in front of them.

 And see how tall I am compared to Jo in this room!

 A visit to the Roman toilets is a must.

 Lake Wanaka, the fourth largest lake in NZ.
  Didn't know that people watching can be so interesting.


Where is the snow?
The lake supposedly reflects the snow-capped peaks of the Mount Aspiring National Park.

The water is crystal clear and would have been still, can do without the ducks and the boats.











The lake side was crowded with people engaged in different activities. It seems that we are the only foreigners.
Wonder how the boy got up on the tree.
 



What a relaxing afternoon we had by the lake. 
To top it up, we had ice-cream to cool ourselves in the warm weather.

After a day in Wanaka, we travelled west. On the way, we stopped at a lookout point on another side of Lake Wanaka and had a last shot of the lake.
