In the morning, we reluctantly packed our luggages and prepared to leave Queenstown and headed to Wanaka. Before we leave this beautiful Queenstown, we took the last chance to walk around the Lake Wakatipu and captured more beautiful scenery photos! One unforgettable experience with the parking in Queenstown is since parking is hard to find, we finally managed to get to park at a 2 hours parking lot. However, due to we parked over the time limit, we got a present from Queenstown state government - summon (NZD 25)!!!
In the afternoon, after approximately 2 hours drive, we finally reached the destination we wanna visit in Wanaka - Puzzling World. The Puzzling World is an amazing place that having a lot mysterious scientific things to see. Due to the time limit and weather, we only able to enter to the indoor - Illusion Room. We have skipped the outdoor part - The Great Maze. The entrance fees for Illusion Room is NZD 12. There is a free entrance fees place that allows visitors to capture picture - Leaning & Tumbling Tower. There are some free puzzles games provided at the cafe areas for the visitors to play.
After having some fun and many crazy photos taken in Puzzling World, before the sky getting dark, we gotta rush to our next destination - Franz Josef. After around 4 hours driving, we finally reached the Chateau Franz Josef backpacker. By the time we reached there (about 8:30pm), we are so worried that the receptionist of the backpacker has left the office. Luckily the staff there is kind enough to leave the room key for us, else we gotta overnight outside the room during winter time... (P/S: During dragging my luggage to the room, my luggage has scratched due to the rocky road at the parking area... sob sob...)
After long and tired day, after having our instant noodle dinner, we slept early and rest more to prepare for the exciting and adventurous day tomorrow for the Franz Josef Glacier walk!
