Hello from queenstown

In queenstown at the moment after travelling allot of the south island already (well the west coast anyhoo) now what have we done...Abel Tasmin went on a longish afternoon walk there beautiful countryside lush coastline and lots of sun...we then went down the coast to nelson (beatiful lots of wine growing but a bit boring to be honest) then on down to climb the longest swing bridge in nz (indiana jones eat your heart out) see sea lions in westport...amazing pancake rocks (crazy limestone formations) and dolphins off the coast as well as a beautiful sunset...then into the bad weather of franz joseph and some spectacular scenery of Fox Glacier...which we hiked on (cold feet brrr) really pretty though...then on to wanaka where we met Pierre from rarotonga watched a rail jam (where crazy loons make a snow slide and snowboard a rail if you didnt know all in the middle of wananka high street) and chill in front of a TV and fire. A nice rest from van life



We went to puzzle world and got completely lost in a giant maze and had funny photos of us holding up buildings (or sitting on them in a way the children just didnt understand)...and then have come to queenstown home of the xtreme sport and bungee...not that we are gonna do one - tried to go hang gliding instead but the operators been stoppped oh well te anau and milford sound here we come...still luging was quite fun as was the crazy golf...off to eat more pies now byeeeeee
