A little bit of this and a little bit of that

Did a wide variety of things today. Started with a stop at a lavender farm on our way out of town, then proceeded to Cromwell to check out the historic village along the river. Stopped at the Kawasaki Suspension Bridge to watch crazy people bungee jumping from the bridge. Ended the day in Queenstown, walking the waterfront and taking a gondola ride to get a great view of the lake and mountains as well as people parasailing down the mountain. It is certainly a town for adventure seekers.
