... to find that we had a corner twin room on the top with a view to the lake.

We wandered around town and had a local Wanaka beer. Also saw a mobile pizza van that I had to check out for a guy I know who has one(I put a pic on) We also got tickets to Cinema Paradiso a small movie theatre that is a little quirky. The seats are sofas, lounge chairs, recliners and some old movie seats. They even have a ...

Nicht das Wandern auf dem matschigen Untergrund an sich war zeitraubend; vielmehr knipsten wir unzählige Fotos der mittlerweile von der Sonne überfluteten schneebedeckten Berge inmitten der Seenregion Wanaka, hielten einen ausgedehnten Schwatz mit einem australischen Päärchen, machten ein ausgiebiges Nachmittagsnickerchen auf dem Rocky Mountain und liessen uns beim ...

The next day after scraping piles of frost from my car, I started the drive southwards to Queenstown via Arrowtown.
More of my adventures there next time!
See you then!

... standing right by my chair. Bruce was able to have a good look at him and figured out why he looked familiar but he was too close for me to turn around and look. He did say he had done the airshow at Ohakea last week before the engine trouble. If you get a chance to see a Warbirds Over Wanaka show do it – it’s a not to be missed opportunity.
