Lake Manapouri

The first leg of our trip was a one hour boat ride across Lake Manapouri. These are the Kepler Mountains:

We had a generally overcast day with occasional glimpses of sunshine and sometimes a rainbow:

Everywhere were mountains, water and mist:

It was generally warm (60s F) but windy and wet. Jackets (and sometimes hats) felt good:

Lake Manapouri is 178 meters above sea level and over 400 meters deep, so the bottom is below sea level.
