Dynamic Queenstown

If you are Queen town for a few days, perhaps you will find that in fact there are two: one from the top of the hill overlooking the town, the night the lights behind the mountains and the silhouette as gentle and quiet, it is a land of idyllic beauty; from the brave upside down in a bungee cord or in the water surfing transient saw, that is the ultimate world stimulation. Perhaps from the first bungee jumping in the vicinity of the Bridge leap that moment, surrounded by blue Wakatipu lake and Southern Alps town doomed to attractTravelingThe eyes.

On Wakatipu lake, the local people told me so. Legend there was a giant, he kidnaps a girl in town. A brave young man know, when a south wind, the giants will fall asleep. So he took the opportunity to kill the giant, rescued the girl. But the giant body became a great lakes. But later people believe, the giant is immortal, the surge is he breathing.

The story sounds so full of poetic, but the core vocabulary Queenstown is dynamic. One day I was asked three times, "you go bungee jumping?" Just like "Hello?" The same occurs frequently. In view of the fact that really no courage, every time I only shook his head in shame, for fear of heights to hide his timid. Here there are many old bungee tricks, nostalgia can choose jumped from the bridge and wanted to try something new, pattern, can from the original forest hill jump, or simply to fly to thousands of feet in the air, a free fall. Bungee jumping here is so popular, that I suspect this town at least half are from the air and tied the rope to jump. "".

Jet boat is the invention of queenstown. Since 1960, people started to take this looks fat ship gallops in the water, not with the speed of 85 miles per hour in the narrow river shuttle, is 360 degrees to rotate mania for several circles, not the passengers get to be dizzy.

At least this project looks don't need much courage, so I put on a life jacket off. Any boats like this than I've ever faster, the wind was terrible, the oncoming, I tear the skin, nose, eyes filled, and went from the mouth of the gap, went straight to my chest. I find myself made another mistake soon, should not sit on the edge of the boat. Because every time when rotating, I feel has been drying clothes in the washing machine, thrown to the edge of the universe. High speed rotating stir water poured into the cabin, from a to Z, a cold water bath for me. An hour later, when I landed wet like just jumped into the lake and swam, and be dead beat, but felt himself at last how to integrate into the mobile as a symbol of the town, the heart is happy.
