Cruising Wakatipu Lake - Queenstown, South Island, New Zealand
We had great expectations for our last evening in Queenstown and we were not disappointed.
First, we made our way through town to be at the boarding area for the TSS Earnslaw lake cruise.
We were on time!
The TSS Earnslaw is a steamship and puts out a lot of black smoke...seems like pollution to me?!
Queenstown is back in the distance as we cruised for about an hour to our destination, a lovely dinner at a sheep farm.
...just in case!
details are important!
same emergency boat but from another level
this boat is easy to spot on the lake!
Looking Up!
Just in case on the other side, too.
beautiful Lake Wakatipu!
Here is the sheep farm and our final destination.
A look back towards Queenstown...
Our vessel shall wait...

Kiwi Zone - Queenstown, New Zealand
No dogs here!
Kiwis are nocturnal and rarely seen in the wild during daylight hours...many visitors visit preserves to enjoy them.
We were told that the burgers here are to die for!
A big dinner on the lake was planned for that evening so we passed on the temptation to indulge.
kind of a cute boat...

Skyline Gondola, Queenstown, New Zealand
Everyone wants to take in the magnificent view from every angle possible!
...and, the magnificent Lake Wakatipu is a glorious sight!
Some come up the mountain with their own feet only and others bring bicycles.

Skyline Queenstown Luge - Queenstown, New Zealand
The time we spent above Queenstown was wonderful...the views were to die for!
We were amused with the Luge and watching people of all ages riding the chairlift back up the mountain when their ride took them down!
Ahhh...she's friendly!
They are absorbed with the views of the "Remarkable Mountains" and Lake Wakatipu.
Is Everyone Having Fun?
YES!
