iceberg watch

On Sunday, we drove off to the top of Mt. Cargill--en famille. This was Tessa's third attempt at seeing an iceberg but the first for the rest of us. It was a bright, sunny day with no wind. Mt Cargill is around 936 meters high which means you can see for around/at least eighty miles or so. Life never is as simple as one thinks. In this case, that means there were ideal conditions, a crowd of other potential viewers but a wee bit of haze towards the horizon...just enough to obscure the view!

This post is has one message. If you are checking it out tomorrow, Thursday (Friday for us), google the Otago Daily Times. A special section was advertised containing photos of the iceberg. (I believe these views will be free on the day the paper is published but require signing up and paying if you wish to examine their archives.)

Good luck with this...
