Leaving Rotorua and the North Island, we hopped (ok, we flew) down to Queenstown on the South Island, touching down briefly
in Christchurch on the way. Queenstown is situated on the shore of a very large, a very beautiful and a very
cold lake. We could have used some of the thermal heat from Rotorua. Even with the cold, we had a lot of fun in
Queenstown. May cleaned out the local Casino, everbody either para-glided or luged their way down the mountain,
and we got a taste of what clean living is all about.
We drove down and did an overnite at Te Anua to see the Glowworm Grotto and take a daytrip down to Milford Sound.
The Glowworms were cool (literally) and Milford Sound was awesome. At the end of our daytrip we caught a fantastic flight
back to Queenstown over some of the most rugged scenery you can imagine.
