After adventurous Queenstown, a relaxing day by the lake sounds perfect. I guess mother nature didn't agree because she decided that it should pour rain. Due to the rain, I don't have many pictures from Lake Tekapo and didn't get a chance to do any of the walks around the lake but I imagine they would have been absolutely beautiful.
This statue is in honor of the dogs who are up in the mountains keeping the sheep where they should be. Since the area owned by each farm is so big and it would require far too much fencing to keep the sheep in, they use dogs instead. Dogs are tied to posts along the property line and bark at the sheep whenever they get near, keeping the sheep inside the property. Don't worry, the dogs are fed regularly by the farmers.
