Holiday Day Fifteen - Queentown Day One
July 06, 2011We 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
walking back to Backpackers and saw this breathtaking view..looks like painting!
I felt so much better after getting off the car, breathe fresh air and took my breakfast
it haven't started snowing..but soon..
view from my dorm
there's hot pool on the left side
smile :D
and then we walked to Lake Wakatipu

it was freezing cold ! SO COLD ! But somehow I feel Dunedin is colder
such a nice place..but cold !
group picture of us ! 2 guys missing though because 1 of them fell sick and the other one accompany him. From left clockwise: Brynn, Liki, Xin Yun, Theng Theng, Elsa, Candy, Jia Yuan, Tong Seng, Devind and Graham
it's nice taking a walk by the lake
the trees make it look like Autumn season
look like they are lovers right?
oh well, they are actually fighting
love my jeans :) It's from Uniqlo
awesome :D
I could just stare at the place for long..
we turn out to be monyet (monkey) in Queenstown
it looked short but actually it's quite high above ground
signboard
nah this is not the lake xD
ahhh the ducks are so cute
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
