Queenstown

Hello from Queenstown! Just hiked up this mountain! Don't know what is actually going on with my hair. My calfs hurt once I got to the top, absolute angles my friends. But so worth it. The girl I went with was so nice about me stopping a few times for a breather. Blaming it on the altitude.

What's this you ask? Only the best find in the Southern Hemisphere.

Because THIS is what was there!!! STRAWBERRIES!!!!!!!!!! I haven't seen these bad boys since 2008. I wanted to buy the jar but settled for the little pack of about 5. I may go back again today. Though I did regret eating them today while on the hike.. Best day ever. I love you Queenstown.

The city.

The lake and everyone out.

so cute.

Aunt Mary freakout out when she forgot to put a flower in my room when I returned the other day. haha so she ran outside and got this one :)

Queenstown is so beautiful but I think I like the North Island better. Not that I'm complaining at all about the South Island but I keep feeling like the mountains are blocking something important.

I love staying at hostels, people may not understand this but they are so cool. You meet so many people and I love hearing about their lives and all their adventures and plans. It does help that the one I'm at now just got an award for the best in all oceania :)

P.S. Had a newer post but it shows up after an older one. Look for "KeriKeri".
