We are still in Queenstown. Today we a going to take a jetboat for a ride on the Dart River, plus a hike and a 4WD Jeep Tour. This place is for the really adventerous, you can bunjee jump, free jump, parachute off the top of the mountain tethered to a guide jumper, this is known as tanden jumping. I would do this but Eileen is Chicken. We are even because I won't do the Bridge Climb in Sydney.
Yesterday we went to Milford Sound. It is a 300 km ride through spectacular mountians to get there. Then we did a 2 hour boat ride on the sound, actually a Fijord cut by glaciers 80,000 years ago. This area has rain 2 out of 3 days, but we had a beautiful sunny day. On the way there we passed hundreds of farms with thousands of sheep, cattle and deer, one farm was 15,000 acres.
