Queenstown
Another great city, and surprisingly my favorite big city of the trip so far. You hear lots of negative things about Queenstown, especially that it's just a big party city and too expensive. While these things are true...it's still a lot of fun, lots to do and beautiful scenery. I spent 4 days there...walked around, did some shopping, went on the skyline gondola and watched a "haka" performance. I went to Arrowtown, a small old goldmining town 20 minutes from the city.
Saturday night I went out with my roommates (two girls from Long Island) and met up with some other girls from the UK. Such a fun night...did a little bar hopping...got into a little trouble. :)
The girls...
Winnie's Bar-It was their Halloween Party!
The roof opened up with hydraulic pumps!
After a few rum & cokes...
The girls catch me flirting with a cute Brit...
The "Remarkables" mountain range...
View from the top of the gondola...
I've left Queenstown and am now on another sheep farm for a little over a week until I head to Te Anau for the Milford Track.

Hi Kel,
The mountain range in the picture from the gondola appears to be floating! Very cool. I'm so glad you are having fun.
