New Zealand Trip 2022 Day 12 Part 1 ~ Skyline Queenstown, Ben Lomond

We're back from NZ2.0! Weather was better this time but unfortunately fell sick the last week and am still sick now :( 

Continuing from where I left~

*****

We arrived too late the previous night and missed out on how pretty the hotel looked. So here it is!





Nest.


Breakfast with a view.


Ordered our breakfast and went out to take some photos.












We moved in as it was way too sunny near the windows lol.





Full breakfast and pancakes for breakfast!




With coconut yogurt and fruits!





After breakfast, is time to set off for a hike!




But not before a stop at Ferg Bakery to get some lunch.





Got a pie and sausage roll for our lunch. Then we drove to the town centre and walked towards the Skyline Queenstown. 


Interesting place!



Then we took the Gondola up. I read that we should purchase tickets online to skip the q but.. we still had to queue as there is only one queue to get tickets and board the Gondola. Maybe there was a separate queue during peak periods since without tour groups, it was relatively quiet.

We took quite a lot of photos at the Skyline photo stop.















Walking towards Ben Lomond Trail.




Start of hike!





As usual, it starts through the forest.




Then out to the open. I've to say that on this hike we were blessed with the best weather. 




















Sky looks threatening at this point. 






Not the nicest photo cos of the clouds but also thankful that we don't get sunburned!




Fashion and hair doesn't matter when hiking lol. 










Snowman!












To be continued!
