Doubtful Sound and Manapouri Trip

Doubtful Sound and Manapouri Power Station Trip:

This was a GREAT trip! I had never been in these 2 areas of NZ before and this was excellent.
Scenery and local knowledge by boat staff on the MV FiorlandII was really interesting.

The Power Station was also very interesting and hi to all the staff underground and above ground who keep things working for us.

Boat staff double as bus driver/tour guides also which was kool.

The second boat trip was also kool, Scenery was WICKED!
Hi to all the helpful, friendly knowledgeable staff aboard the ( apologies here as I seem to have forgotten the name of this boat. but will add it in when I find it) they know who they are.

My highlight of this part of trip was kool ride out to the seal colony and being SO close to them and seeing the dolphins and all the fiords.
Peguins VERY elusive lasses and fellows I mite add. Be quick to catch photos of these.

This trip I highly recommend to all visitors to this area.
