Wednesday early flight from Auckland to Queenstown jet boat river crazy spin driver “I wanna go home” freaked out when it started. All over “I wanna go again”-cannon. It really was crazy the drifting and how close we got to hitting the river gorge cliffs. I was afraid of crashing on multiple occasions! A short drive down the road to watch Bungee jump for sam Isabelle Chad. We enjoy a lovely picnic at the bay- Ben snores and takes a nap in the shade. We decide to walk downtown. Most of the kids stop for swimming - play king do the dock while some people went shopping - dinner was fish and chips. A nice evening Walk back to the parked cars.
Thursday pack up for overnight fjord boat cruise drive 2 hr to ferry. Then board a bus ride 45 minutes then get on overnight boat - weather then Windy and raining. The kids found they could turn their coats into sails! Wet but happy. We saw seals and so many waterfalls. A short excursions in the rain before dinner. Most everyone went on the Kayak but me, Gwen, Brielle and cannon ride on a boat with tarps- so much rain and get really wet. Dinner is delicious and small portion dessert- lemon sponge cake or chocolate tart- yum 😋
Friday sunshine in the fjord cruise- take a bus — then ride a very nice boat ferry back to our cars. While driving in the car, cannon pipes up from the back “can somebody roll down the window?” I turned around in a shock and yell at Eva to roll down her window, and then unbuckle her seatbelt into the move out of the way right as Cannon is sticking his head out the window and begins to puke— luckily most of it makes it out and sprays onto the side of our car. Luckily, we are close to a park that had bathrooms and water to help clean up the car. We had to stop a few more times for Cannon has his belly was still a bit crazy for the two hour ride home . He eventually close his eyes and went to sleep. We really wanted to go downtown to a couple of these cute souvenir shops, but we went and got some food and it was looking a little close for our flight. We actually had plenty of time. So the kids got to choose what they wanted to eat. We got some gelato at a very expensive place and then went to turn back in our rental cars and made it to the airport in plenty of time. flight back to Auckland. Check into a cheap airport hotel order Uber pizza for dinner.
