Day 5 & 6 Queenstown (Rest Day)

Thanks t a local scool they loaned us th use of their grounds to camp on. this was greatly appreciated by all. This is a day that we get to see the sites or just lay back an chill with a good book. There was plenty of time to kick back and enjoy what this town had to offer. We also had 3 English back packers with us on our team, Who I called the 3 stooges. These guys were always together and I enjoyed their company, Great for laughs and could they drink as well. Riders and Vollies hit the town hard spending up big and enjoyng the sites and night life. This town was great, spent some time wondering around before catching up with the others for drinks. It's amazing how these riders can drink so much then ride the next day. well there is always the Sag Wagon. for those with sore heads. And I'm sure there will be some during the ride.

The local beer...... mmmmm

The Shotover jet ride... now this is freaky!!!

Day 7 Wanaka

This would be one of the easiest sites... so mush room here. We camped at the racecourse. The local Scout was raising money with you guessed it a BBQ. Lot of late commers to this site made it hard to pack up any loose equipment. Had to send the team out  so they would not miss dinner. Day has been perfect with all pitching in and coming together as a team. Now all we need is that late rain forcast to dissappear.
