This town is so incredibly cozy and quaint.  It reminds us a lot of Lake Tahoe - it's surrounded by gorgeous scenic mountins and located on the edge of  the expansive Lake Watatipu.  We've set up camp here for a full week wanting some time to chill out after all the adventures we've had the past couple weeks.

We managed to find the Pounamu apartments to stay in.  These places are gorgeous - not only are the 2 bedrooms/2 baths more then enough space to sprawl out in, but the place is fully equipped with kitchen, washer/dryer, 3 plasma televisions, surround sound and best of all the most incredible view of the lake.  Check out the picture from our loft style bedroom above.

Now, being the adventure capital of New Zealand you're probably wondering what kind of crazy activities and dangerous stunts have we indulged in here - the short and easy answer is nothing.  We did take the luge down the moutain as you can see Jason doing - however that was pretty tame compared to the skydving, bungee jumping and river rafting the town is known for. 

We're enjoying our time to take in all the beautiful scenery that surrounds us, as well explore the historic towns of Arrowtown and Glenorchy.  Tomorrow we're off to Milford Sound for a day trip which should be amazing. . .
