Jet! Ooooh woooh oooooh!
Arrived in Queenstown early so had time to have a quick wander around
and grab lunch before heading over to the Shotover Jet boat.
Essentially it’s a scaled up jetski that carries 14 passengers and
flies through canyons at breakneck speed interspersed with 360 degree
spins. We managed to get front row seats with Jen at the edge. It was
amazing how close the driver got to the rocks and people’s screams
only made him get closer!
Then it was off to watch people bungy over the Kawaru river. Most
people leapt straight off but a couple needed some pursasion before
they went. Pretty funny but we decided to pass as we’re saving money
for something a little bigger.
Looks pretty nasty to me – please don’t throw yourselves off something ‘a little bigger’. jet boat looked brill.
