The irony however, is that our vacation was accompanied by old folks and young kids making outdoor adventure almost impermissible. It also did not help where my dad did not feel too well.
Nevertheless, we focused on the activities that are suitable for family fun. Hence, here was the list of activities
Skyline Gondola - Apparently this is a must see in Queenstown. At the peak, one can have a complete view of Queenstown and its surrounding area - a 220 degree panaroma as I understand
No doubt however that Jeremy was upset he could not go on to the go karting track on top of the skyline. I promised he would be allowed when he hits 10, much to his disappointment.
Distance of Queenstown from various parts of the world.Arrowtown - Went to see the gold mining town off Queenstown. Apparently, there was a Chinese village that was preserved to show how the Chinese miners lived their lives in the 19th Century. Other than that, the one horse town is pretty clean and preserved as if the clock froze in the 19th century.
Jeremy somehow did not find NZ that pleasant. he felt sick after TeAnau and as you can see here where the picture was taken at a cafe in Queenstown, he certainly did look fatigue and tired. Lesson learnt is the vacation cannot be too long if you have young children. 10 days is max. And also, it would not help the cause if its a scenic vacation tour in which they will find it hard to appreciate at their age.
