On our drive, we were lucky to finally see some real NZ style sheep herding - notice the dogs (black specs) on this professional grade footage:
Getting closer to Queenstown, the variety of lush plains and mountain peaks covered with low clouds was just beautiful. It was hard to keep your eyes on the road.

Right before arriving in Queenstown, we decided to stop at Carrick Vineyards for our first taste of the Central Otago wines. The winery was pleasant with great wines and lush surrounding gardens surrounded by the majestic mountains. WOW!

Arriving in Queenstown made us realize that we had left the best for the last. Breathtaking town on Lake Wanaka, surrounded by mountains... AND, as yet another bonus, we got to see our first real live kiwi bird right on the side of the lake. They're so much bigger than we thought!! (photo)
