THURSDAY, JANUARY 18, 2007:
After arriving in Queenstown I road the Skyline Gondola for nice views of The Remarkables and Lake Wakatipu.
FRIDAY, JANUARY 19, 2007:
This was probably the most disappointing day of the trip, my journey to Milford Sound.
The weather down and back was not bad, but the weather at Milford Sound was awful.
You couldn't even see Mitre Peak and the other beautiful mountains surrounding the sound.
I was also supposed to fly back but beacuse of the weather it was another LONG five hours back to Queenstown.

SATURDAY, JANUARY 20, 2007:
On and off showers on Saturday kind of hampered my planned activities.
I spent the day in and around Queenstown.
It was fun watching folks far braver than I jump off the Kawarau Bridge into the canyon below.

SUNDAY, JANUARY 21, 2007:
I battled the weather once again on Sunday. My first activity of the day was the Shotover Jet.
I also spent some time in downtown Queenstown.
I should have canceled this helicopter flight due to the bad weather.
MONDAY, JANUARY 22, 2007:
I began my last day on the South Island driving around Central Otego.
From Cromwell it was a very scenic drive to Glenorchy.
It was a very windy drive between Queenstown and Glenorchy but the scenery was spectacular.
Once in Glenorchy I went on a four hour Dart River Safari.
This is the area where The Lord of the Rings was filmed along with a lot of other movies.
I returned to Queenstown on the same scenic road after the safari.
