Travel day back to Australia. I did some shopping the next day while SnowDude went to work, and packed for the weekend. Stopped by Torrens Lake again on the way home

Lake Wanaka, we went snowboarding nearby at Treble Cone, and the Harris Range nearby is where we did the heli-boarding 2 days

Thanks Eric! I’m still working on “Part 3” of the last trip! Then I’m going back again in November for a month! :D :D :D

I should be an expert at driving on the wrong side of the road by December! :lol:
