Holiday Day Fifteen - Queentown Day One

July 06, 2011

We left Dunedin around 9+ in the morning and it was a long journey to Queenstown. You know their definition of "near" in New Zealand means at least 1 hour car ride? In Malaysia, when we say "near", it's really near like 5 minute car ride? Bahhh..It took us 3 hours to reach Queenstown =/ It's been a long time since I sat in a car, so I was having car-sickness that morning. Oh yeah, and I didn't had my breakfast before the journey.

we stayed in Backpackers in Queenstown..couldn't find this place at first and we need to ask the people there

we need to wait 1 hour before check in so we headed to Queenstown Mall for lunch

I shared with boyfriend this plate because I have no appetite and also, the foods there are expensive

it was drizzling that day..wet floor

I felt so much better after getting off the car, breathe fresh air and took my breakfast

Went to the New World in Queenstown to get food for dinner and meals for other day. What else to eat besides cup noodles =/

The guys came over to the girls' dorm to play cards while the drivers fell asleep because they were too tired. We were just chilling out today because the real activities starts tomorrow !

Urgh, I hate Backpackers in Queenstown though. The double decker bed is really short and the heater ain't working and we need to share toilet with EVERYONE but the worse part is, the shower room is just a piece of cloth curtain. NO DOORS ! The curtain is also sorta like transparent. BAH ! Spoil the girls' mood T_T
