Shotover Jet

On the same of arrival into Queenstown,we didn't just hang around the town doing nothing.We went up to Bob's Peak via gondola for remarkable views overlooking Queenstown.At the peak,we dined,snapped some pictures and inhaled the fresh cold air surrounding it.There were also activities such as bungy jump,paragliding and luge ride but we did none of those.Bungy and paragliding was too thrilling and extreme for us (except Pasha coz he successfully did it not long ago) while luge riding didn't interest us coz we've already done it in Rotorua.

After we've had enough of the views,we went down and drove to Shotover River for a thrilling jet boat ride called Shotover Jet.It was a breathtaking unique ride through dramatic and narrow canyons while holding on tight for the  exhilarating full 360degrees spins made by the boat driver.It was the most awesome experience we've ever had riding on a jet boat,although we were freaking wet due to the splashing of cold water from the river.

The view of the river canyons was fantastic.

Two gentlemen yang sgt over =P

Before the ride started.We were fully equipped with wet proof jackets and life vests.

Revving up the engine.

The fantastic 360degrees spin!

After the half an hour jet boat ride,I could barely feel my legs on the ground when getting out of the bout.My knees were shaking and face muscles were cramped due to the cold wind that had been slapping my face throughout the speedy ride.The next time I'm in Queenstown,Shotover Jet is a must for me to get on as the experience was unforgettable!
