We wrapped up our trip with a couple days in Queenstown. We did two award nights at the Queenstown Hilton, which were a treat following camping, trekking and staying in very economical accommodations all over the island. We were upgraded to a lakeside room based on Gold status and enjoyed the very complete continental breakfast.

Very warm and soft merino/possum blend. Possums are invasive and eat lots of Kiwi eggs so it's "green" to buy this to encourage more possum trapping.

Queenstown doesn't have a taxiway, so the planes have to turn on the runway
