New Zealand Day 2: Queenstown: Happy Anniversary!

Four hours of gorgeous views and several stops for photo ops (notice a theme here) we arrive in Queenstown.

First and immediate stop (no, not the bathroom) is Heli Tours! We both love to fly so this is an absolute must on our list.

Since it is our 1 year anniversary we splurge (about $1800 USD ) and charter our own private heli tour over/around Queenstown.  If you can work this into your budget, DO IT!  They also offer group tours if you want a less expensive option.
