Day 4- Camper Van

We drove from Te Anau to Queenstown. Not a very long drive, only about 3 hours. On the side of the road in a town called Garston, stood the most adorable church. It was white with red window shutters and stood between autumnal trees. There were mountains in the backdrop and fields around it. I had the girls stop so I could take a picture. We actually saw it on the way down and I couldn't stop talking about it. Something about it grabbed me and I had to capture it.

We set up shop at a campsite in Queenstown and chilled out for the day. This by far the nicest campsite we have stayed at- only the showers are $1 for 8 minutes! We met some other young campers, but their camper was so nice! It was definitely a camper... Winnebago style! It put shame to our van, but they invited us for a drink and we got the night started there.

We ended up going out to World Bar. It is a sister bar to the World Bar in Sydney- though that one is much better! We had some teapots and danced the night away. I called Matt, the nice guy mom and I met... but somehow we didn't end up meeting. it was great to go out as we hadn't had a fun night out in a while.

It was really interesting to stay at that camp site for one reason: you could see where mom and I had that crazy buffet that night. We were basically sleeping at the base of that mountain... I didn't realize how high up mom and I were. It was really cool to see it at night because the only thing visible were the lights on the restaurant.... so it seemed to be hanging in mid air.
