Today was our last day in Queenstown, and the last proper day of our trip together! Got up and spent a fair bit of time packing - was just as boring and stressful as we knew it would be! Have managed to give some stuff for Mike to take back with him though so my bag shouldn't be so full in the morning. Got showered and dressed then went into the town and to the post office. Posted our postcards, hope they get there ok as it was a bit unclear what to do! Then popped to the supermarket and got some milk, Mike had a lot of cereal to finish! Once he'd finished we checked our flights etc online then popped to STA to confirm they were all ok. Thumbs up! Then we went to do some shopping for Mike... thought girls were meant to be indecisive but it took ages! It was mainly because we saw a t-shirt in a shop window then at the end decided to go back and get it, but could not find the shop anywhere!! Didn't see what it was called but thought it would be easy to find anyway as we'd see the top. Must have gone up and down the same 3 streets soo many times! Plus we went into every souvenier shop to see if e could find the same one! Eventually Mike saw it in a shop window, a shop we'd gone into twice looking for it, so don't know how we missed it! Got it though and then popped back to the hostle to drop off our stuff and Mike took me out for a really lovely meal. Had spotted a nice looking restaraunt while we were shopping and it was great. A lovely treat for our last night :-) We had chicken and pesto pasta for a main which was soo good, we are so bored or burgers and pizza! Then we shared the most delicious chocolate fudge cake even, soooooooooo yummy! Even got a strawberry milkshake at the end!! We were sat outside which was really nice too. After the meal we walked down by the lake and there was a street performer putting on a show. He was actually really funny, unfortunatley we only caught the end of the show but glad we saw it. Went into a few more little shops then came back to the hostle. Will be going to bed soon, got a very very long 2 days ahead! Get on the Kiwi bus early tommorow for a long drive to Christchurch, arrive at 4pm. Will be staying in the airport over ngiht, Mikes check in to fly home is at 5am then I'll be waiting till 3pm to check in to go to Sydney.... not looking forward to it at all! Fingers crossed everything will go smoothly :-) Have had a fantastic time in New Zealand, sooo glad Mike came along, he has loved it too and it has been so lovely sharing it all with him - only wish he could could come to Oz with me too!!! Going to miss him a lot, will be very different travelling on my own.... hopefully I will meet great people in Oz like we have done in NZ :-)
