Queenstown

Text written in: English

We got to Queenstown city late enough and went for a quick game of crazy golf-always fun! After that we stroled around went for a few beers in the irish bar Pogue Mahones (not bad G). Met with a girl from cork, Fiona Keating and went to the "Boiling Room' which was pretty packed.

The next day we went jet boating which was really exciting. Ducking and diving in along the river under trees and spinning around. That evening we got the gondolas up a mountain for some great views of the city and to do the "Luge" which is like go carting but no engine (just gravity pulling you down the hill).

The next day I mustered up the  courage to do the bungy from the top of the same mountain over looking the city.  I was sh**in it! After the guy called 5-4-3-2-1 I just took a deep breath and went "Feck it!" Check out the video. 

On the way from Queenstown we went to Milford Sound on the west coast. We went on a boat cruise. Great views, seals and even got some dolphins swimming in front of the boat.
