Hey everyone Today was our final day in Queenstown. Surprisingly we didn't do much today, and after a lie-in and the biggest breakfast ever, we put on our winter warmers and headed outside. It seem to be getting warmer, as it showed 6oC on the thermometer outside the Crowne Plaza and we hadn't seen it above 4oC for days. We had a look around the shops, continuing to souvenir shop. Lunchtime came and we thought we would treat ourselves to a Fergburger, as ever...

Hey everyone Today we packed our bags! We got up late knowing it was our final day in Queenstown and we didn't have much to do other than pack our bags and prepare for our final destination in New Zealand. We packed our bags sorting out our things and read some of our books.

Then in the evening we watched the end of The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, then re...

It was a long journey to Milford Sound - about 5 hours - but thankfully it was broken up by a few stops. Our first was at Te Anau, where we would have phone signal for the last time for many hours. It has a huge lake, but we were really there...

Hey everyone Today we explored Queenstown. We reluctantly got out of bed as it was freezing, but got ready and put our coats and gloves on and braved the cold. We went into town and Christina spotted a souvenir shop, and after Alex's exasperated 'not another one' she reminded him she had been in very little in New Zealand and had to get her fix. We bought some presents and some New Zealand wooly hats to keep out the cold. After looking in other shops and doin...
