Queenstown, New Zealand


Well we safely made our way to New Zealand. We arrived late at night and spent our first full day making our way to the Adventure Capital of Queenstown. We spent 2 days exploring the city. Our weather was beautiful both days so we took advantage of it and went up the Gondala. We would have hiked up, however we were doing a 4 day hike the next day so we wanted to rest our legs........
At the top we had a chance to do a luge ride. It was pretty hilarious. We basically went sledding down a track. It was very touristy but still a lot of fun! The views from the top were great too. The rest of the time in Queenstown was spent getting ready to do our hike and relaxing around the town. It is still strange seeing Christmas decorations everywhere, especially with no snow!
