Saturday - Reaching for the clouds

For sure it was raining when we woke up but we would not let a little storm stop us. We started the climb up mt Ben Lomond from Queenstown and after a couple of hours we reached the clouds. When visibility declined and the wind was too heavy we returned becuase it was no real point going further when we still would see nothing but we still got a quite heafty excercise.

After a late lunch we checked in to a really good hotel for the final night on the South Island. We are on the 9th floor with a fantastic view of the bay. We are finishing the day with a meal at the best fish restaurant in Queenstown, called Fishbone.

Tomorrow we are on an early flight back to Auckland for hopefully a little warmer weather.
