Feb 19, 2008 - Fiordland

February 19 Fiordland In 1904, with the simple stroke of a pen, New Zealand set aside 5% of their country as a National Park and called if Fiordland. The Fiordland National Park provided an exclamation point to the claim that New Zealand is a naturally gorgeous spot to see and visit. ...

Dec 30, 2007 - Doubtful Sound-Fiordland National Park, NZ

After not having written an entry in the last several days, I hate to start this off on a bad note. We woke up very early again this morning for our 170 km (approximately 2 hour) drive to Doubtful Sound, one of the many sounds in Fiordland National Park, the most south and west you can get in New Zealand. ...
