End of New Zealand.

Since the last post we've moved from Fox Glacier to Wanaka, then onto Queenstown.

Wanaka was really nice, a small touristy town on the edge of a really nice lake. We were supposed to go on a plane trip to Milford Sound from here, but it kept getting cancelled due to bad weather over the mountains. As a result we went to Wanaka Puzzling World instead (?) and saw the leaning tower of Wanaka, a big maze and a room of faces that appear to follow you as you move. Adam also went on a river jet up the Clutha river, which he really liked...

Next we moved onto Queenstown. Still couldn't fly to Milford Sound, so we went to a bird sanctuary and saw a few Kiwis and Keas (worlds only alpine parrot - Famed for liking to chew rubber, especially windscreen wipers off cars) and Adam did a bungy jump :-) whilst Louise went to a Yoga class.

...and that was New Zealand. Flying to Melbourne tomorrow.

Hi
I did some looking up on the dodgy plane and found out it was a beechcraft 1900 and downloaded it for flight simulator.
