Queenstown--Tourist Mecca of the South Island

Kiwis like extreme sports like parasailing. I think it's because if they get injured the government will pay for their medical bills. We didn't try it but I'll bet the boys won't be able to pass up the experience when they visit in a couple of months!
This weekend we traveled north to Queenstown. We were too cheap to ride the gondola but hiked up the backside switchbacks and were rewarded with this view of the city and Lake Wakatipu.
