Stray Bus Day 22 - Queenstown

Our 3 day trip taking in the southern part of the island came to end an end and today we took the 3 1/2 hour drive back from Invercargill to Queenstown to meet up with everybody who hadn't booked on to do the southern loop. We booked into a quiter hostel called Bumble Backpackers, which had a lovely view over lake Wakatipu to the Remarkables mountain range. The first ski slopes had just opened, so there was abuzz about the place as snow was also forecast! We spent the evening in the bars around Queenstown catching up with everybody from the Stray Bus once again.
