Queenstown Pictures

Queenstown is the "Adventure Capital" of the world, and especially in New Zealand. Although very expensive, you can bungy jump one of 4 different jumps, including the world's first bunjy jump. You can also do shot-over jets down the river, kayak, water ski, hike, tramp, camp, hang glide, parachute, scuba dive and lots more. The town is very much like Jasper in Alberta, at the base of some mountains called the "Remarkables".

There was a group of 11 of us, and almost everyone wanted to bungy jump, here are 2 photos of friends from uni jumping....

we drove down in a car that one of the american students bought here for $600, which should be a good indication of how it ran....and it broke down not once but TWICE, in the middle of nowhere! we were on this highway and luckily a mechanic stopped to help us. after 5 hours it started again, but then broke down for good. we ended up taking the bus out the next morning!

but at least the scenery was nice....this is what we saw....
