Helicopter Ride
It was a wild ride to shoot straight up the cliffs to land on a small flat plateau for some champagne.

Working as a migrant worker in Queenstown hasn't been that bad. I've managed to make a couple friends, learned to make almost perfect kiwi coffee and even got surprised with a end of season work party better then any before.

We knew it was going to be something fun. The last party was a private sailing and drinking booze cruise. We closed work early on Sunday and got on buses. We were told that we were heading to the airport to board private helicopters for some time and champagne above Queenstown. The ride was awesome. I've never been in a helicopter before and now can't wait to do it again.

We had our champagne and hung out for a bit. hen we boarded the helicopters again for a scenic flight around Queenstown.

The night continued with an unlimited bar tab until 1:30am. The next morning wasn't as much fun.
