We are officially in love with Queenstown after today! Don't let this city fool you - sure, it's surrounded by absolutely stunning beauty, but Queenstown is way more than just a pretty face. It's the adventure capital of the world, which makes it not only gorgeous to look at, but a thrill seekers paradise! It all started with the creation of bungy jumping, and has developed into a place where you can find a different adrenaline rush on every corner. Today, we wanted a piece of that action, so we chose one of their most famous attractions - the Shotover Jet. This jet boat races through the narrowest of canyons on the beautiful Shotover River, and sent my heart soaring each time we came within INCHES of the rocky canyon walls. Add 360 degree spins to the mix, and I'm pretty sure we've come across my dad's dream job. We tried to take a few pictures while we were on the boat, but between holding onto the railing and screaming our lungs out, you shouldn't be surprised to find that they're not quite up to par. It still gives you an idea of what a crazy fun day we had!
