Well it's now my last day in Wanaka and I've had quite a relaxed week here, certainly is the place to do just that. Never managed to make it up to either of the nearby mountains, partly due to illness (my sinuses decided to play up), partly due to lack of snow (although there's some forecast for tonight, just about typical). Finally partly due to getting my windscreen replaced (due to a lovely big crack that appeared one morning in Queenstown whilst driving, pictures to follow) which somehow managed to take up three of my days (although that's exaggerating, it wasn't 3 whole days, just three lazy days). I've also been out for a couple of drives round and about the area, and was tempted to try out the local shooting range, still might tomorrow morning, depends on the cost (I do believe there is some form of YHA discount for extra rounds or something like that!)
Oh and I also added a load more photos to this site, click on any of the entries under the Photos!!! option on the left of the main page. Tomorrow I'm off to Dunedin for 2 nights, then up to Christchurch for a night and over to Melbourne (Oz) for a week. Then I should hopefully be doing a 5 day scuba course in Cairns as well, which'll be nice.
