Back to Queenstown for another two nights and we got the same unit at Pinewood we had stayed in previously. One Irish girl was still there so we had good fun catching up with her. The following day we took a trip in the car to Moke Lake which was amazing. It's in the middle of nowhere, lots of sheep around! In the afternoon we did a hike on the Queenstown Trail. It brings you to the top of a mountain and you get a good view over the town. We had a big dinner that night! The next day we left Queenstown but stopped at the Kawasaki Bridge on the way, home of the first Bungy jump. Can't beat an adrenaline rush at 9.30am so we threw ourselves off the side of the bridge (two for the price of one thanks to a voucher we got through the car rental company Jucy!), and set off on the road for Fox Glacier. But, that wasn't enough for Conneely..enroute to Fox there was a skydiving place at Lake Wanaka. We had a voucher for fifty bucks off so I signed up and two hours later I was flung out of a plane and free falling at 15,000 feet! Right, enough adventure for one day, back on the road to the town of Fox Glacier, from where we would visit The Fox Glacier.
