Queenstown

After spending days in small villages like Tekapo and Twizel we travelled to a big city again: Queenstown and its 12.000 inhabitants. And what a lovely little town it is. We were lucky enough to have great weather on our arrival day, so we went out and had the best ice cream ever on the lake front. On the day where we wanted to go for some walks however, it was really cold, so we stayed mostly in the hostel after having a huge burger for breakfast which nourished us for the whole day.

In the evening we went for a couple of beers - there are really nice places here including an indie rock bar - and ended up spending the evening with a Canadian bar keeper who was working in one of the places we went to. She got a local residents card which entitles her and people with her to cheap beer. We're best friends now!Weiterlesen
