Queenstown

We have absolutely loved Queenstown. It is a small mountain town on a beautiful lake. Reminds me of Jackson Hole or Park City. The mountains are stunning. We were scheduled to go on a flight/hike/boat ride, but there was an absolute downpour which shot those plans. Instead we saw some amazing waterfalls and went on a hike in the rain. We almost went to a movie, but luckily it cleared up and we rented a boat and drove around the lake. It was gorgeous.

This morning we went on a jet boat ride. Google jet boats. They are crazy. They can go in 10 cm of water, and they fly. We zipped down a tight canyon, sure we were going to crash. It was truly thrilling.

We are now starting a 5 hour drive to Milford Sound where we go on our cruise and hopefully get our dolphin experience....

We miss you, Amelia!
