Queenstown

A bungee jumper over the Kawarau river

Queenstown, with The Remarkables in the background

After Wanaka, we continued on down to Queenstown (considered NZ extreme sports capital). We had heard there was a few avalanches in The Remarkables mountain range, before we arrived, but luckily never saw any!!
We stayed for a couple of nights and met up with the lovely Murray family from the Sunshine Coast in OZ again. We all went to watch the bungee jumpers at it was great fun. One guy had a kilt on and it was good to see that he was a true scotsman....enough said. Queenstown has so much to offer and you could easily spend several days there doing all the adventure sports, but you will need a big bank balance.

Did either of you bungee? After the parachute jump I don't expect anything will scare you now?
The Remarkables are stunning.
