What a beautiful day! Everything seems to fall in place for a wonderful ride to Wanaka. Just perfect,excellent. The weather was sunny as early as 7 morning, the scenery was spectacular with Lake Wanaka on my right and Lake Hawea on my left, the road winding between the mountains and the lakes was a joy to ride at. Meeting a group of Malaysian from Kota Kemuning,Kuching and JB along the way. Stopping over The Puzzle World and the leaning tower is still haven't fallen yet since I visited a few years back. Wanaka is very touristic and yet is just a small town, it is not difficult to find Holly's Backpackers where I stayed for 29 nzd for an 8 bedrooms room. The New World Supermarket is nearby where I did some groceries shopping.
