Day 9 – Te Anau to Wanaka By Day 9 the good weather seemed here to stay and the thermals were stowed away and the mesh jackets and gloves came out. We stopped at Kingston for coffee and then it was a easy cruise along the banks of Lake Wakatipu to Queenstown. This is a breath-taking lakeside ride and one we would love to do again - nice views and good twisty corners. We stopped at the wharf in Queenstown just in tine to see the Ernslaw steamship berth – cameras got a good hammering ...

A wasp flew up under my hemlet as i was riding and I had to let the little bugger sting the hell out of me as my hands were very occupied...within 5 minutes the entire ...
