Civilized

The last full day of my trip was great because the only must-do on the agenda was do very little walking, stock up on a few treats and eat a date scone.

On the bus ride into town, we met two sweet old ladies who were coming in for lunch with a friend. The chatty one asked if Lacey and I were going to be in town long, because if we were, we should go to visit them for tea!  Tea with old ladies?  This is my thing. Sadly, there was no time but we assured them that yes, next time. 

We had a late breakfast that got me re-hooked on cold oats. This craving will surely die when I get back to -30 degree weather. 


Afterwards, Lacey and I wandered (slowly) around the downtown, the waterfront and through the Queenstown gardens. 








We came across a stick swing on our walk, which I'm confident works better for children. 


For our last supper, the lowercase edition, we got take away sushi and a bottle of vino and enjoyed the fresh air. There might have been some Scrabble. You thought long division was wild!  We watched another episode of The Bachelor Australia, despite being in NZ, to end off my trip. I'll have to rely on Lacey to keep me updated...

I packed my suitcase. Just a few more hours of holiday left.
