This is the first time Mallary and went into Queenstown during the day. Since it was another spectacular day, we decided to go up the gondola to get a bird's eye view of the city. We enjoyed a muffin for morning tea and looked out over the wharf and Lake Wakatipu. Absolutely beautiful! We tried the luge down-which turned out to be a lot more fun than we had anticipated. After we came down from the gondola, we went to Kawarau Bridge-the original first site of Bungy Jumping! I was so excited and had been looking forward to this for the whole trip! Imagine my disappointment when I arrived and the lady at the desk told me that they were already booked for the day! A handful of people told me not to worry about booking but to just show up, and I took the wrong advice. I begged but there was nothing I could do. I guess everything happens for a reason, and I saved myself $150. AH! How frustrating! At least my mom can rest in peace.
