3-9-08 Haast to Queenstown

---

We had a beautiful ride through the mountains this morning. Everywhere you looked there were waterfalls. Once we got over the Haast Pass it was beautiful and sunny. Queenstown is really beautiful. Our motel is just off the lake near downtown. Ron is congratulating himself on his wonderful choice of motels. We plan on staying two nights and then we will go to Te Anau for 2 nights. From Te Anau we will go up to the Milford Sound and probably take a boat out into the sound.

Went to see the jet boats go through the gorges in 6” of water.

Kiwi word for the date is Rates. This is your real estate taxes.
