So most of today I have been chilling, but im bored of chilling! So i came up with a dastadly plan to drive over to Queenstown and get my adrenaline pumping :) One problem the weather is forcast snow in a couple of days, not good in an automatic MR2!!
Not to be defeated there is a place about an hours drive from where I am in Mandeville called Hamner Springs, So its time to get my extreme sports head on and spend some money. After I enquire tommorow I intend to do the following
Undertake the ThrillSeekers Challenge! this consists of:
Jet Boating!
Rating!
Quad Biking!
and Bungy Jumping!
Although the Bungy is moderate in height as goes a bungy, it is going to prepare me mentally for the biggen in Queenstown off Kawarau Bridge.
The package is going to cost me $440 dollars, pretty reasonable i think, best to get some fun s*** done before i work my ass off for some more money :(
I will then probably stay at one of hostels there and try meet some backpackers for the first time :)
Then I will probably bathe in the the geothermal springs that range in temperatue from 32 and 42 degrees!
Im very excited to enter this new stage of my New Zealand Experience!
