We weren't surprised to run into colder weather on the coast (and in front of big rivers of ice!), but Queenstown went from being nice fall weather to snowy and windy to nice fall weather again since we arrived. Also, Abel Tasman is supposed to be in some sort of protected position so it's almost always sunny, though it does cool down.<BR/><BR/>And, yes, Queenstown is the "Adventure Capitol of the World" and you can't escape it. We can see bungy jumping from our campground, and the town is filled with young adrenaline-seekers. We prefer to keep our adventures a little tamer.....Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10861760979468894638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2377312797415153161.post-67172280713898418162007-04-13T19:07:00.000-07:002007-04-13T19:07:00.000-07:00It's amusing to see a paraglider in your Queenstow...It's amusing to see a paraglider in your Queenstown area picture.

Is that from driving further south or was there just a change in the weather?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00722619600787851376noreply@blogger.com
