March 9

March 9 – we bike out of Twizel on our mountain bikes in the fog for Ohau, pronounced Oho or sometime oh oh!!
Sunshine quickly came through once we left town and we had a clear blue sky with puffy clouds the rest of the day. The beauty of the sky competed with the brilliant azure blue of the glacial lakes. We followed the A2O from the paved road to dirt trails that were sometimes stones! We wove our way around the circumference of Lake Ohau. As we traveled north the wind picked up considerably. We were also greeted with a view of the mountain range where Mt Cook is.
Glorious day!
