Another pretty day with an outstanding sunrise. Our hotel room faces east over the lake with a lovely groomed lawn between us and the lake and mountains.

Wanaka is by reputation what Queenstown used to be.

A day of more walks, more town time, and a final evening dinner wrap up with the group. Tomorrow is travel day with a very early predeparture walk.

It is good Fri here. Monday is also a holiday, a four day weekend.

Six hundred for climb to a good viewpoint. Actually a very good view. Learned a bit more about liability. Everyone pays a risk adjusted , based on type of job, percentage of their income into the AAC, accident assurance corporation. In exchange the state pays for all accidents, and all give up the right to sure. Criminal liability remains for negligence.

Wrapping up the tour today with a wine tasting, local wines at their best and then a dinner party.
