This is it! I am done! I can't believe I am leaving when it feels like a few days ago when I was twiddling my thumbs in a Chicago airport waiting for one of the many legs of my journey over here.

Tonight I am staying in Te Anau to get a bus to Orapuki where I will wander by myself in the southern coastal prettiness. Friday we are heading to Doubtful Sound (like Milford but more remote and supposedly more beautiful) for an overnight kayaking trip!

Two days later I will be boarding a plane to another country.
