Queenstown is weird. It’s like Surfers Paradise at night. But it’s a lesson in tourism fuelling development. Nic’s car would fit in beautifully here and would also be a blast to drive through the windy streets.
We went to Glenorchy, had a pie and enjoyed the views through the fog and driving rain.
I had a pork and apple sauce pie from Mrs Woolly’s and Nic had a chicken and mushroom pie. The pastry was flaky and delicious. So much so, I followed up with a mince and cheese pie just to double check 😅
After lunch, I stood in the Glenorchy storage cabin while Nic wandered out over the pier to take some moody shots over the water.
The rain and wind got worse as the afternoon went on, so we returned to Queenstown and checked out the Time Tripper underwater observatory. Heh. It’s aight.
Finally, we went back to the apartment and hunkered down to watch the F1 race from over the weekend.
Tomorrow, we aim for Milford Sound… if the roads are open 🙉
