We spent the afternoon on our first day in Queenstown taking in some more sights. We took the Gondola to the top of the mountain for a look around.
Lou's snapping photos and I'm hiding in the corner of the Gondola...
We made it to the top - a nice visitor's facility and a cafe.
Some views from the top. First, the classic postcard shot:
The TSS Earnslaw was out on it's second run for the day ...
Another nice view:
They have some concrete "luge" paths above the Gondola station - it looked like fun.
Caught a pic of Lou going up for his Luge run (sure ...)
Time to head back down the mountain. Is Lou snoozing again???
Oops - no, I think he's just visualizing himself on the Bungy Jump platform.
We survived the Gondola ride and went for a walk through town. We saw a few of these crazy rental vans around New Zealand -
Decided to have an early dinner. We have now sampled Mexican food in Bali, Australia, and New Zealand. Bali wins. Sombrero's was fine, but not exactly authentic ( surprise?)...
Strolling down the mall area ...
Thought of Mij and Beau when we came upon this ol' guy at the pub.
The view from our balcony at night:
