As I lay in bed preparing in my mind for the day's activities, I pondered the possibility of another cloudy night and no night sky tour. I formulated a contingency plan for us to remain in Lake Tekapo and bite the bullet to increase spending for lodging and delayed flight plans. Jody agreed to cross that bridge when/if we came to it. Once we assessed the day, our hopes rose as we saw virtually no clouds in the sky. The weather report was clear for the next several days. Jody decided to leave our room while it was still dark to observe the sunrise and early morning around the lake. I passed and slept in. I knew that I would be busy enough that day.
Jody's first morning picture on Day 2 makes me feel like I'm in Alaska.
The small Church of the Good Shepherd in the early morning light rests peacefully at the water's edge.
Despite the early hour, there were other stalwarts around the lake, including many photographers.
The dog statue is a monument to the dogs among the sheepherders.
As the morning progresses, blue sky and hardly any clouds. Looking good for tonight!
