Day 12 – Fines and Fergs

So let’s start with fines.  I’ve been done!  Left Te Anau for a pretty dull (by NZ standards) 200km drive to Queenstown.  Jo had warned me about the strict enforcement of the 100km per hour speed limit, so I was well behaved.  But when you’re on an empty road and haven’t seen a car coming the other way, the temptation to cut a corner exists.  What I hadn’t allowed for was the car behind taking a photo and emailing the cops.  So blue flashing lights, me deciding the best tactic was to be contrite, and $150 poorer.  Welcome to NZ!

So it had to be lunch of the world famous Fergburger – yummy!

Then from Queenstown to Wanaka – we all climbed this mountain (in the car of course!) and took photos …

.. and photos of Jo taking photos!

But then to Lake Wanaka for a couple of nights – more views!
