1st day in Queenstown

Incredible: I got no jet lag... My recent introductory pilot flight must have immunized me :)

Ok, for this first day, I got a breakfast at the Vudu Cafe... my advice: ask the waitress to have have something without too much pepper.

Next, hop in the Gondola and start a 4 hour walk to the next 1700m high pick for a good view of the surroundings. My first impression was: I am in the Alps. The wether quickly changed from sunny to rainy so bring your jacket. People were very friendly on the walk.

In the night, I got in a lively bar and to my delight: it's forbidden to smoke... but not to drink and to have fun. This law passed last decemeber so I guess I'm lucky: no sticking clothes.
