Day 22 :: Rainy Day in Queenstown
It's raining heavy in Queenstown. No kidding. But I gladly accepted a day of sitting back and resting the dogs for a while. After a long night of sleep, I walked out to town for egg-bacon-sausage-toast breakfast at a bar called the Loaded Hog. I did a little shopping and bought a rugby jersey and a few other souvenirs.

With plenty of ours to kill, I caught a showing of Blood Diamond at the movies, which turned out to be an amazing and very emotional story. Very well done. It features awesome performances by Djimon Hounsou, Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Connelly.
I then stumbled across a bar called >Minus5, which is constructed totally from ice and ice sculptures... including the glasses! They give you huge parkas, gloves and some booties (optional) - I felt like I was getting suited up for a cruise to Antarctica. Our bartender Kylie is a kiwi girl who loves snowboarding and as you can see from the pics is a lot of fun.
The rest of the evening will be spent eating sushi and meditating for my big jump tomorrow on the Canyon Swing.
