(Or day sex I should say, seeing as that’s how they pronounce it in New Zealand!)
Today we went to a little suburb I suppose you could call it, of Queenstown. It was called Arrowtown and was sort of a town within Queenstown that was very pretty. It had a big English influence on it and had many pretty English cottages with big green trees and littl
e rose gardens. It was Senior Band’s turn not to perform so while the other bands were performing, Neville and I went around and bought souvenirs in all of the little shops. Our group was actually written about in the newspaper, but because Neville and I didn’t know it was happening, we weren’t in the group photo :(
After the performances in Arrowtown, we went into the main part of Queenstown to go on a cruise on the lake. That was very beautiful because today the sun was out and shining and the water looked so pretty and so blue! It was very nice to watch the water go by as the sun shined. We got off on the ot
her side of the lake, about 45 minutes away and went on a tour around a farm there. That was ok I guess, but I sort of found it a little boring compared to the conversations I was having with the guys.. hahaha good times :P
As far as I can remember nothing much else happened that day. We got home to our accommodation and had a wonderful dinner as usual. This time I could appreciate the view that our accommodation had because I wasn’t totally out of it. And it was such an amazing view! Because Queenstown is on a hill pretty much every house has a fantastic view because there are no houses in front of them. Our accommodation was on the side of the lake which had less houses, which meant that we got a wonderful view of the bigger part of Queenstown framed by the huge snow-capped mountains behind. The sight was even prettier as the sun was going down because all of the lights were turned on and the whole city glowed. It really was beautiful. And we got to wake up to that every morning!
Oh and I just think you should all know, when I’m older I’m going to be living in
Queenstown! It’s so perfect and peaceful and I really noticed it when we got back to Brisbane because I was so used to the clear blue air of Queenstown. When you compare that to what we have in Brisbane, you almost gag with the uncleanliness of the air. Brisbane really isn’t a very nice place to be, so I’m moving to Queenstown as soon as possible because it’s so much nicer!
