We had a good sleep in and then went to vudus for breakfast ..great coffee and toasted banana bread ..yummy!!
Off out exploring in the car, to Arrowtown first, a lovely old gold mining village. Lots of old buildings, carefully preserved and being used as shops and offices, which seems a great idea. Had a lovely pancake at a french restaurant then left for the Kawarau bridge, the home of bungi jumping, to watch the idiots throw themselves off a bridge. ..I still can't imagine why anyone thought that was a good idea??? Went onto the Gibbston winery for a sample. ..or two .. of the local wine..very good..I needed it to settle my nerves!!
Back thru Queenstown and then onto Glenorchy ..a stunning drive by the side of the lake., a real switcback, only completed in 1962..before that, the steamer was the only option!
Another happy hour glass of wine, then supper a walk and bed.
P.S. why a winery and not a vineyard?? Its catching..we spotted a cheesery too!!
