23/2 Queenstown

Queenstown 168° 40' E, 45° 01' S

Today I've really enjoyed using my own strength. I've rented a mountainbike for 4 hours and did a tour around lake Wakatipu. It was great to see the mountains and smell the pine trees and sit along the lake. I just was so fed up with all the big attractions, just not my idea of fun and was curious about more simple activities. After my biketour I took the Skyline Gondola up the mountain, really high. Great views, but being on my own in a gondola was not so fun, a bit scary, although I've seen some sheep on my way up. At the top of the mountain I met some guys of the group and we made a lot of pictures and going down together was a lot easier for me than on my own ;)

In the evening we had a pizza with a little group and I just had to ask for a fork and knife to eat my pizza, instead of using my hands. Still some sense of 'civilisation'.
