On the way back to Queenstown we took a detour to a tiny old style town called Arrowtown and had one of the best meals of our whole trip at a little pub called "Jonesy's", not to mention an awesome waffle ice cream. Whilst we were there we had a stroll around the shooping precinct.
Definitely a place we would frequent if we lived near there. So relaxing.
After our lunch we took another detour and went in seach of a well known location, especially if you are a skier/snowboarder - Coronet Peak.
We followed the signs until we came across the base of the road to take us to one of the most breathtaking views of Queenstown. We begun the 5 - 10 minute drive up the hill and were immediately in awe, we couldn't wait to get to the top!
Once there, we took a moment to take it all in and watch to group of paragliders entertaining us launching off the side of the mountain.
Dark clouds began to inhabit the sky, which created a better light to shoot.
With alot of great areas to pull over and shoot, we settled down and I got out my camera to try and translate this amazing sight......
.....and this is what I saw.
