Queenstown

All well here. Skydive went well yesterday and not a quarter as bad as expected. First 3 seconds are tricky enough but after that you wouldn't even think you were going 200 km an hour. It's like watchiong the ground in slow motion on video and it's quite nice. You're on the ground in 6 minutes from 12,000 feet and after that it's difficult to tell whether you actually did what you did. It's like walking on air for the first couple of minutes after landing.

We also did River rafting which is going down a river on boogie boards. Very tough on the body and I was sore after it having not got the right fitting boots. Very glad I did it. Much scarier than the skydive and there were lots of girls in tears. I'll let you know after the bungie which was worse.

Here's photos from Christchurch, Dunedin, Te Enau, Milford Sound and Queenstown:
