Day 7
What did I do today. We left Te Anau pretty early, with a stop at a bird rehabilitation park. We saw mountain parrots and red crowned parakeets and Antipodes Island Parakeets. We drove to Queenstown among more amazing scenery.
Queenstown certainly seems... active? There's an entire street of adventure tourist ventures. "Go Ski Diving!" The shops yell. "Go JET BOATING!" Screams another. "FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, LOTR ATVS! RIDE AN ATV!" The city advertizes itself as the never ending party, and it's definitely trying. There are tons of bars, and they all have specials to get you in and get you drinking. Tonight the Buffalo bar has half price drinks for anyone topless. Tomorrow anyone who kisses a ginger gets a free shot. Tomorrow we're going on a bar crawl that has 7 bars. One of which is an Ice bar, with walls of ice and stuff. That should be interesting. While a few of my peers went out drinking tonight, I finished up my essays that are due tomorrow. We have to hand write them, which is really hard! I'm used to be able to add sentences here, spell check there. I never did learn to spell restuarant correctly.
I got a meat pie at a bakery for lunch today. My first one of the trip. I just sat there in ecstasy while I ate it., Yep, it was amazing.
So, that's what I did today. Have a good day everybody.
