Queenstown

Queenstown is for crazy people. Those who like bungee jumping and heli-skiing and the like. Those people are not me. So instead we walked around the town, drank beer and ate free pizza, found a cookie shop with a happy hour and played a lot of cards. 

Such a view

I could probably fill this backpack. With shoes. 




On our last day we discovered there was a bit of a ceremony going on for this steamship. It has been running for 100 years. There were a bunch of steam tractors that blew their steam horns when the boat came into the harbour. It was a call and answer of horns. And all the other boats came along as an honour guard to usher this boat into it's next century. It was all rather emotional really. 






We almost walked more, but then it got cold. And so we went in search of a fireplace.
