Queenstown

Day 39

For the first time in awhile we had a nice lie in.  After a good 2 hour drive we arrived at South Isalands main resort, Queenstown.  The hostel was not ready so we headed around the town and had sampled the local cuisine, McDonlads chicken nuggets.

In the evening we went to meet Duncan and Danielle.  We had first met Duncan while we were lost in the maze at puzzle world.  Then 3 days later and a couple of  hundred kilometres we ended up by chance sitting next to them on the Milford Sound cruise.  It turned out they had both studied in Preston, Duncan lived there for 5 years.  They  now live in Manchester.  It was really strange being sat in a bar at the other side of the world talking about Micks Hut and Roper Hall.  It was a good night and I had a  fair few beers.

We ate at Ferburger, which is kind of a must in Queenstown.  The burger was really nice but I can not  quite see what all the fuss was about. It is no Carlos Junior that is for sure.
