Blue pools and Haast pass

On the last full day of our holiday we drove from Wanaka along the Haast pass highway. We did three walks before Alex literally fell asleep as we were walking and it was time to go home. The first walk was to the blue pools which was nice although it had more tourists than sandflies.

There were lots of stone towers, Alex's effort was probably the smallest one there but he was still pretty chuffed with it.

The walk to the top of the pass was quite straitford even though we had to carry the little ones most of the way.
