Wanaka

Day 36

First up was Puzzle World on the outside of Wanaka.   I was not sure what to expect but it was a fun day out. It  was a mix of illusions, puzzles, tilting rooms and a maze (I will get to that).

The tilting room was very strange, it was difficult to walk in. Some people bypassed it.

This was a simple looking puzzle, you had to connect all of tubes.  It took us a good 40 minutes to complete it.  There was even a small argument, a small highlight of what was about to happen.

We then headed to the maze!  Now initially this did not look too difficult but we were very wrong. The idea was to visit all 4 corner castles in a particular order, the first one being the most difficult. This took us the best part of one and a half hours and one or two rows as to which way to go.  The maze is made extra tricky as there are  one way bridges that are incorporated.  Lots of people gave up and  used the exits.

After we had recovered and grabbed some food it was off to Baseline Wanaka.  This is a climbing centre with a great mix of  walls.   It was a great hour and a half and we were very tired after it. Claire was a little apprehensive at first, as the walls were very high.  However her determination paid off and she made it all the way.

Claire on her way.

Me tackiling the grade 15! I got to half  a foot from the top, so so close it was pretty hard and extremely tiring.  It was awesome though
