You are never too old!

This woman came into the hostel reception today and asked me to book her a bed in Queenstown. She had come in the evening before but we were full. She then told me about how she was hitching around NZ by herself and that it was her 80th birthday yesterday! This woman didn't look a day over 60...so for those of you who think they are too old to do something or are feeling a little older today. Think of this woman. I asked her what her secret was and she said....walking. Crazy :)
And now a few more photos...

The Hut..a welcome site after the mountain we had to climb down to get to it. Let's just say it was a little steeper than we were expecting!

(this was actually from a few weeks ago. Our little bbq at Beacon Point, on the shores of Lake Wanaka. Sheesh...wonder where the poor people are eating?)


Housework....even on holiday.. Me sweeping out the hut.
