Remarkable Queenstown

We drove down to Wanaka last night, gorgeous evening and great to be down here.

Then awoke to a simply fab autumn morning, just amazing. Perfect, as it's Adams 10th birthday today. Had a leisurely morning, enjoying being down here, enjoying all the presents, and then a little before lunch we headed to Queenstown.

And, if you've been here, yes, up the Gondola. Classic day, as you can see and the kids both loved it. Rode up, had lunch, did a few runs on the luge, watch the parapenters, then down and back over the hill.

Via of course, the Cardrona Pub, for a beer and dinner.

Back to the house, more playing with new toys, then a wine (for the adults) in the spa pool watching the glorious stars. And now bed.

Big and great day!

Here for the week, will get out and do some tramping weather permitting.
