Queenstown

Queenstown is the adrenaline capital of New Zealand. You can basically do anything that gets your blood pumping from bungee jumping to sky diving to jet boating, the list goes on. We decided to go with something a bit lower key and rented mountain bikes to explore the waterfront. It was a nice change from hiking. We followed a gravel trail around the lake and ended up at a golf course café for a beer break before turning around. We timed is perfectly as it poured rain the entire time we enjoyed our beer.

After returning the bikes mid-afternoon, we wandered the streets and dropped into World Bar for another pint and some use of their Wi-Fi. It was a really great bar with a wood fireplace that helped warm us up. The campervan doesn’t have any heat at night so it can get pretty chilly. A warm fire is always nice.

To finish off the night we treated ourselves to dinner at Pub on the Warf. I had some excellent Beef Wellington reminiscent of London 2 years ago.Read more
