Queenstown Wednesday 5th February

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAMIE Wish you were here. Love from Mum XXX

Today has been a very different day. It turns out that Queenstown is beautiful!

The view opposite our hotel
After a walk down into the town we queued for a gondola ride up Bob’s Peak, one of the Remarkables.
You could have brought your bike up the mountain on the back of the gondola Jamie then cycled down.
The views were stunning.
The air was a bit chilly at the top but it soon turned into a lovely warm day.
We walked up further and watched people on the Luge run.
We thought “ We could do that!”
On the way up to the Luge run.
It was great fun, even when faster young men overtook without warning.
We would happily have gone down again.
Cooling down with Tip Top Ices; New Zealand’s best brand.

The weather is expected to be good here again tomorrow. Distant Journeys has refunded the cost of the cancelled Milford Sound excursion and we have booked a lunch cruise for tomorrow instead. There are still problems with all the roads out of Queenstown but we fly out on Friday. No difficulty expected there.

Have a great birthday celebration this evening Jamie.
