Queenstown

New Zealand invented bungee jumping, which is why most people wanted their first bungee to be here. I am a staying-on-the-ground kinda girl, so I just watched, but it was fun to see my friends do it! Below is a photo from the Kawurau Bridge looking out at the clear blue water, and the guys that are in charge of pulling in the people that have just jumped doing what they do between jumps – tanning! haha!

Another stunning view from my room in Queenstown! Although I have to say, it was one of my favourite places in NZ because it was just SO beautiful.

The gondola up to the Skyline restaurant was pretty scary for someone afraid of heights, it’s quite the angle… but the view from the skydeck was worth it! I also took the gondola up a second time and hiked down with a friend. We didn’t realize it was going to take us 40 mins away from the actual town once we made it to the bottom… but it was a great hike!

When you look at all those houses/buildings it gives some scale of how massive the mountains are!
