We left Queenstown (which we weren’t keen on – very touristy) this
morning and drove the short distance North to Wanaka.

We sorted out our campsite for tonight and then headed our for a
scenic picnic looking out at the beautiful snowy mountains, pretty
idyllic.

The afternoon was spent firstly at a place called Have a Shot where
you can clay pigeon shoot, hit golf balls, have a go at archery, shoot
rifles etc. We both did the archery and then Ben shot the rifle and
did very well – we have his best target to prove it (see photo).

After that was a microbrewery to taste some beers which were
delicious. Then to Puzzle World for a museum of optical illusions and
a huge maze which thankfully we found our way out of…eventually.

Tonight we’re going to treat ourselves to a curry and a pint of the
beer we tasted earlier.

Wanaka is really nice so we’ll stick around for a couple of days we
think. The weather is even good! Maybe a walk tomorrow.
