Queenstown

Greetings from Queenstown, the adventure capital of New Zealand. I made it here yesterday and am loving the fresh, mountain air. It’s beautiful here! Queenstown is surrounded by mountains on all sides and a great lake right on the edge of it. I can’t wait to put some pictures up.
I spent the last few days just down the road in Cromwell. Cromwell has the distinction of being NZ’s city farthest away from the ocean. I think the ocean is somewhere around three hours away:) That’s one of the things I love about this country – you’re never far enough away to not hear the beach calling.
In Cromwell I met up with Stewart and Bernadette, my gracious hosts from GlobalFreeloaders. We had several yummy, homecooked meals and I even got another round of golf in with Stewart. Golf is a game I never thought I had the patience for but have really enjoy the three times this year I’ve been able to play. I don’t remember if I mentioned it but I also played with Marcus and his friend in Dunedin a week or so ago (with the third time being in Denmark). I suck, but it’s still fun:)
Off to explore the city!
