The Last NZ post... for now.


Guys, I totally forgot to finish my blog on New Zealand! I came on here to write about our upcoming trip when I realized I never finished my last blog... so here we go!

Our last day in Queenstown we ended up doing the Hydro Attack which I thought was pretty cool. Below is a picture from their website: 
The shark can swim, dive, and shoot up into the air. It's just you and the pilot inside so it's a pretty tight space, but the shark itself can reach speeds of 80kph on the water. It can leap straight out of the water into the air before diving back down into the water. I had done research prior to our trip and it looked fun so I thought we would give it a try.

 It was definitely a unique experience and it's amazing that they were able to come up with something like this. I appreciated it for what it was, but if you ask Mike he'll say it wasn't thrilling or exciting enough. We both like major thrills, so I get where he's coming from, but it's still unique and still got my approval! 

Later in the day we rode up the gondola to see some amazing views..

(lol first amazing view)






Queenstown is my absolute favorite city - it is STUNNINGLY beautiful and of course I like it because it's all about the THRILLS!  As you can see, we did some bungy jumping as pictured below:






I've done it here before, but this was Mike's first time! We had such a good time we actually did it twice! <3  We got LIVE MORE FEAR LESS shirts as POJ! (proof of jump) And then of course we also had to buy matching SWEET AS shirts! 



The rest of our time in New Zealand was essentially just making our way back to Christchurch to head home... we were going to take a nice scenic drive along the coast, but due to the weather we ended up skipping that part. It was cloudy and rainy that day so we decided we'll do it on our next trip to New Zealand. (Which I DO have a video of Mike stating we could come back!)

If anyone ever wants to travel to New Zealand...
1. Take me with you
2. Ask me anything
3. I will help you plan
4. For real take me with you
5. I will be your tour guide
6. Just go
7. It's the best
