Lake Wanaka is located in the Otago region of New Zealand, at an altitude of 300 metres. Covering an area of 192 kmē, it is New Zealand's fourth largest lake. Its name is Maori, probably originally Oanaka ("The place of Anaka", a local tribal chief). At its greatest extent the lake is 42 kilometres long. Its widest point, at the southern end, is 10 kilometres.The lake stands 928 ft above sea level and is probably more than 1,000 ft deep. Lake Wanaka was repeatedly mentioned in the movie "Mission Impossible III" as a location the lead couple visited. It was the answer to Tom Cruise's question on the phone to verify the identity of his wife.

The Bible tells us to love our neighbors, and also to love our enemies; probably because generally they are the same people.
