QUEENSLAND AREA...





Queensland is known for being the hub of action/adventure tourism--bungi jumping was invented here!  One can do many other unfathomable feats there as well, hang-glide, skydive, base jump~you can also bounce down a mountain side in a huge inflated ball that looks like a hamster wheel... We didn't opt for that ride.  We just stopped through on our way to Milford Sound.  But what isn't usually spoken of is just how beautiful Queenstown is... If one is going to bunji/base jump, hang glide, skydive, hamster wheel mountain roll--it could be a more beautiful landscape to free fall through...
