We saw alpacas, sheep and cows on farms that were next to the roads in New Zealand.

Other Nature News from this week:

It was very cold when we hiked near the Rob Roy Glacier, which is in the Mount Aspiring National Park. I got to swim in the river where the water came from the melting glacier. The glacier was right above us in the mountains. We hiked to see it up-close later that day.
