John had read about Lake Mapourika, a mirror lake, on the road from Franz Josef to Greymouth, where we were dropping off our car and taking the TransAlpine train back to Christchurch. It was so worth the stop. Utterly still and clear. We all stood around, took pictures, and wandered about in silence so we could just be there for a bit. It was so still and clear. If you threw a stone in it, the ripples would propagate out until they distorted the reflected view of the mountains. Magic.
