Day 46 - Queenstown

It felt so good to wake up and know we didn’t have to get on a bus today. First port of call was to grab some lunch as we didn’t wake up for breakfast and where else to go for your first meal in Queenstown than Fergburger. 


This is a one off shop but is quite well known internationally. It is just a burger shop but the burgers were nearly the size of my face and tasted SO GOOD! Whenever you hear someone talking about Queenstown it won’t be long until they mention this place. I decided to go for the classic with cheese just to get the real Fergburger experience.


We then wondered around some more and explored the town. Gary told us to check out Arrowtown, which we plan to do tomorrow and instead of taking the bus we thought about hiring a car but that seems impossible just for a day so I guess it’s back to square one with that idea.


As the weather was absolutely beautiful we wondered down to the lake and just chilled on the beach soaking up some rays. We are already at the stage where you walk around a town and know half of the people you see because there is a Kiwi bus that turns up everyday and not everyone leaves on the same day so a lot of buses are now crossing over.
Nomads provide a free dinner on a first come first served basis every evening. After our burger we were a little bit hungry by dinnertime so we decided to go and see what they give you. Tonight’s dinner was the classic British meal of Bangers and Mash, it was given to us in quite a tiny bowl but you could re-join the queue and get more if you wanted but the amount we were given was enough for us. It wasn’t amazing but hey, I can’t really complain when it’s free.

Most people that night were going drinking on the beach but as rock and roll as the three of us are we decided to go to Cookie Monster and buy an ice cream sundae instead. We were all so close to finishing it but sugar overload took over first.
