What a wonderful place to spend the night. <\/p>\n
As soon as we had set-up the campervan we all headed out to investigate our surroundings. We found a beautiful lake and the kids found a wonderful field to play “Narnia\/ Power Rangers” in. Admist cries of “For Narnia!” Courtney and I sat on a large rock overlooking the lake planning our next steps (heading to Fox Glacier).<\/p>\n
The campground itself is fully on the honor system: you pay and park yourself. There are no numbers or lines or bushes designating each camping area. I wonder what it looks like on a busy summer night? The fee, you pick up a plastic envelope and tag, place your money in your envelope and drop it into the payment box.<\/p>\n
The next morning we woke and went down to the lakeside. Chayton is so enthralled with his Star Wars book – it was the first thing he said when he woke up today “Can you read to me?” We took his book and went down to sit on the dock to read. I was able to sit\/meditate at the end of the dock in the sunlight listening to Courtney read to Chayton behind me. At one point, Chayton came up and sat with me – back to back. <\/p>\n
It was so magical and relaxing. <\/p>\n
