Lake Wakatipu at Queenstown |
Today, we travelled along the Southern Alps from Franz Josef to Queenstown via the Haast Pass. Our hotel at Queenstown is halfway up a steep hill (mountain??), and I have an amazing view of Lake Wakatipu and the mountains from my hotel room window.
We were left to fend for ourselves for dinner, so I walked down into town and enjoyed a meal at an Irish pub, Pob Mahones. As I left the hotel, our coach driver gave me a thumbs up for walking instead of catching the bus. Quite frankly, I needed the exercise after all the excellent grub I've had on this NZ tour!
The walk took about 20 mins with a few stops along the way for photos. The walk back took about the same time (less stopping for photos) and WAS. A. KILLER! Our tour guy saw me and said I was part mountain goat for making it up the hill/mountain. The photo at the bottom doesn't even show the steepest part! 😁
