The Beautiful Hollyford Vally lupine fields beside the Clinton River.

Our view of the Milford Wanderer, sister ship to our Milford Mariner.

A quick stop before entering the Homer Tunnel to say hello to the Kea birds....the world only alpine parrot. They appear to crave rubber mouldings.

The beginning of the Hollyford Valley....the lupine fields would unfold before us....irresistable photo opts.
