The Kawarau bridge bungy jump - Queenstown
This was our first stop in Queenstown. The Kawarau bridge bungy jump. This was the first commercial bungy jump site in the world. I didn't do it but I had to pay for my Nevis bungy jump (143m high!) here. More photos of that later! Hi everyone!
Sorry it has taken so long to update the blog. Through a combination of being busy and being a lazy git it has been a very long time since the last update. Instead of trying to write a massive journal entry like I used to I'm going to try just uploading photos and writing captions. Hopefully this will make things quicker and encourage me to keep up to date with the blog. It's probably more interesting as well so people don't have to listen to my ramblings!
Anyway, this entry should finally round of New Zealand. The last entry ended with us in Wanaka I think. From there we travelled down to Queenstown (which is a wicked place) and then joined the 'bottom bus'. This took us in a loop to Dunedin in the south east corner, Curio bay on the South coast, Invercargill also on the South coast, Te Anau in the South West corner, the Fiordlands of Milford Sound and then back to Queenstown.
Having spent a few more days back in Queenstown we travelled up to Christchurch on the East coast of the South Island. Me and Jim took a road trip for
Queenstown and it's lake.
Queenstown was easily my favourite place in NZ. Was really cool. It's quite a small place with loads of shops, cafes and bars but it's surrounded on almost all sides by massive mountains and it also has a really nice lake. a few days up to Kaikoura (due to boredom of Christchurch!) and went whale and dolphin watching!
That pretty much somes up the trip so I will now try to upload some photos!
Take it easy
Chris and James
