We headed South again towards Queenstown but not before seeing this tree Hania insists is famous – world famous in Wanaka I guess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That tree.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After the tree we took the Crown Range road out past Cardrona and the bra fence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    We survived the hairy descent into valley and headed to Arrowtown. It was crowded by the standards of everywhere else so must be a zoo in full flow. A shame as it is a very pretty town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      After lunch (pie again) we headed into Queenstown and wished we hadn\u2019t. Could have been Queen Street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      We thought we would camp out of town and went North as far as Glenorchy without any luck. The freedom sites are closed and the paid sites unappealing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      There was a hint of Aoraki but cloudy, this is looking south east.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      We were a bit miserable as things didn\u2019t seem to be panning out so we headed all the way back to Queenstown and then south towards Kingston at the foot of Lake Wakatipu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      We found a nice place on the shore of the lake where we could camp for free. The only worry here is the wind which is really picking up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
