New Zealand Wineries

This is what view looks like from the picutre below standing toward the ocean and Akaroa.
This is what the path leading outside lead to and the picture doesn't do it justice because the mountains surround it.  
A french farm winery in Akaroa.  It was easily the one of the most gorgeous buildings I've every been in.  It is built to hold wedding receptions.  So there are dining tables in the left side of the building (fireplace to make it cozy) with no second floor, just a high ceiling.  On the rite side of the building is the wine bar along with a second floor dining area and a path leading outside.
Some of the many grape vines being grown everywhere in the mountains.
This is a terrible shot of the Amisfield winery.
So it rained in Queenstown, but there were wineries everywhere, so for the rents and Alicia I had to stop in to a couple.  I really like the Amisfield wines and they were very helpful.  Everyone at all of the wineries were so passionate about what they do and it rubbed off on me.

Park Benches

Lake Tekapo.
Queenstown.
Queenstown, ok not a bench, but still cool.
Looking out off of the park in Queenstown.
Somewhere in New Zealand, I got lost...everywhere seemed to have a lake inbetween some mountains.

Bungy Jumping

Me swinging in the air after the bungy jump.
The view from the Kawarua Bridge where AJ Hackett made the first bungy jump.
The infamous Kawarau Bridge, the place where AJ Hackett started bungy jumping!!!

I was in complete shock...I'm afraid of heights and right ass you jump, you can feel your entire body fill with adrenaline.  Such a free feeling!!!
The Ledge, this is what I jumped out of.

Queenstown

In one of Queenstown's Parks.
Again beautiful camera work.
In one of Queenstown's bays.

From the top of the gondola ride I took to go bungy jumping.
This is pretty much the view when I bungy jumped, except you could also see straight down into the rocks on the mountain.  But Queenstown, the park is on the first peninsula and a golf course is on the second.

The Drive...ChristChurch to Queenstown

Mt. Cook, the tallest mountain in New Zealand, along with the New Zealand flag.

Mt. Cook.
A nice pitstop.  I skipped some stones and got some fresh air.  
This is what most of the bridges in New Zealand look like.  One way, only fits one car and it's very tite.  I managed to drive our rental car 1300 km on what seemed to be the wrong side of the road and we all walked away without a scratch.  whew!

New Zealand - ChristChurch

So you think this only happens in italy...eh???  
Some very cool water fountains in one of Christchurch's parks.
Us in the Church.
The Center of Christchurch in Cathedral Square.
Lyttleton harbor is in the botttom left corner.  Me with my All Blacks Jersey.  The New Zealand Rugby team that kick's ass.

Kawana and Wakeboarding

Kawana Beach.
Bli Bli SunCoast Wakeboard Cable Park, me just getting up.
The walk of shame back to the start.
Hittin' a nice kicker.
