More Sight Seeing

Over Waitangi Weekend we went and did a bit more sight seeing. We went to Reefton a bit of a non event as most of town was closed but then we detoured to the Buller Gorge Swing bridge. It was another beautiful day and we had lots of fun.

This rock formation hangs over the main road from Murchison - Blenheim or actually from almost anywhere (other than Greymouth) into Westport.

ONe of the many view of the mighty Buller river as you drive along it.

Emily and I on the swing bridge. It is a long way down. Patrick by the way is the tiny figure you can see in the middle of the bridge. No fear in him.

Christina at the beginning of the bridge. I think that by the time we got half way she was wishing that she had gone before Emily and I who were taking it one step at a time.

The view of the water of the Buller river from the swing bridge. What an amazing colour and see that waterfall way down below.

The Swing bridge takes you over the Buller river into an area of significant historical value and there are lots of different walks that you can take. Also for a price you can try your hand at Gold panning, jet boating and of course you can do the superman or flying fox back instead of using the swing bridge. The swing bridge is a must if you can handle it.
