Mount Cook


Mount Cook

Then, like Siri, we went to Mount Cook. It's New Zealand's biggest mountain and the place with loads of walks for the most and least able. With the weather as unpredictable as ever, we packed for all eventualities. Eddie thought it was unnecessary to pack so much, seeing as we left the hostel in blue skies.
"Do you think it will rain?", he asked.
"Is the Pope Catholic?" Carrie replied.
As it turned out, the Pope wasn't a Catholic any more as JP2 had departed this earth that very morning. And it did rain, but not for long - we were soon treated to blue skies and amazing views.
