New Zealand in review - Day 6 - Queenstown


Our first fun in Queenstown was a trip up the Gondola at the top of Bob's Peak. The gondola ride was deemed fun by Gondola veteran Georgia.





Just inside the door at the top of the gondola is one of the karts that is used on the luge track. Ethan would have been happy to sit on it and not move for the rest of the day.












While waiting for the luge track to open, Luke found there was paragliding operating off the peak. So he was strapped to a 'pilot', ran off the edge of the mountain and sailed off in front of our eyes. Georgia was very unimpressed that she couldn't go too.





After Luke returned safely, he, Nic and the munchkins went luge riding. I took lots of pics but in most of them, the people look too small to be noticeable. I was happy to sit and enjoy the view. It looked so perfect it could have been a blue screen.
