To the South Island!

Dropped our home for the last 3 weeks back to Lucky campers.
Turbulent flight to cold wet Queenstown, not quite the summer we had ordered. We were greeted by an excited Cathers wearing a Christmas Santa springy hat thing, got us into the festive spirit. We drove North East towards Wanaka. The car dipped down to 7 degrees on the way though. Brrr.
The scenery is amazing, big flat planes with mountain ranges bordering all sides.
Got to Pete and Cathers house. It's got some epic views over Lake Wanaka.
Pete was in the pub after his work drinks, so we wandered through town to meet him. Went past the cool blue lake with the mountains behind.
Found a pissed Pete with his work friends in the pub.
Had a great few hours socialising. Getting hungry we ordered some burgers for take away and got some brandy to add to some dodgy looking white wine. Made Chardonnay brandy sangria. Which went down a treat. Great first day in the south Island.Läs mer
