Wednesday March 23rd (Day 5 Travel Day to Greymouth)


No one was ready to leave Queenstown so soon, but it was time to pack up the cars and head North-west to Greymouth, which was 330 miles away. On our way we were treated to some amazing scenery full of giant mountains, tons of lakes and rivers, and two different glaciers. We stopped at both glaciers to check them out and were struck with awe as the glaciers added to the uniqueness and beauty of this country. The South Island truly is a one of a kind place, and we were able to experience that first hand today. There was a little bit of rain, which ended up playing to our favor as we were able to see the most vibrant and distinctive rainbows you could imagine; there were literally over fifteen rainbows along our drive.

We arrived in Greymouth at about 8pm, just in time for a team dinner at Banzai Pizza. Our schedule for tomorrow is slated for a 7am wakeup so we can make it up to Picton in time for the Women’s match.
