Hey guys!!
The town we're staying in (Alexandra, also know as "Alex") is a very small town in the southern part of the South Island. One of the things they're famous for is having a "Clock on the Hill." It's basically a big clock set on top of a hill.... see?
People in the town look at the hill when they want to know what time it is! Cool, right? There is a path you can climb to get to the top! So that's what we decided to do this last Monday. (It was labor day here so we had a day off of school!!)
Just a couple pictures from the walk to the trail head!
We had to cross "Shakey Bridge" to get to the trail head... it sounds scarier than it was!
See? Not so scary! But a little cold! haha
We made it to the famous trail head!
Climbing the Rock! Laura was a quick little bunny all the way to the top!
Naturally, I had to stop to take some pictures on the way up!! Gorgeous views!
ALMOST THERE!!
We made it to the base of the clock!!!!
View from the base of the clock!!
Of course we couldn't be content with only getting to the base, so we climbed up to the top of the mountain!
Being a dancer, I felt it was necessary to take some dancer-y pictures along the way. I promise I was holding onto something!! :)
WE MADE IT! All the way to the top of the mountain! Sounds like a good end to the weekend to me!
