Next Stop-Puzzling World at Wanaka
Puzzling World at Wanaka – 23.11.2005
We say goodbye to Queenstown and begin the journey to Fox Glacier. Passing the picturesque Lake Hayes, an historical gold mining area where there are still the remnants of the homes from this era.
We stopped off at “Stuart Landsborough’s Puzzling World” in Wanaka on the way.
Our time at Puzzling World was a funtime, with many activities to join in. This is an unique place where things are not necessarily as they first appear. As we entered the Park it is impossible to miss the coloured, leaning buildings – Very bright to grab ones attention.
Inside there are many different things to experience. There are holograms that follow you as you walk past. Some of them a bit scary. There are also plaster face masks that are three-dimensional, these also follow you as you pass. These are masks of different people in history, including Albert Einstein and Mother Teresa etc.
Also in another room set aside; everything is on an angle, unfortunately, I had to give this one a miss to avoid vertigo. 
Another room was a communal toilet where fun photos can be taken. A visit to the toilet was also a fun experience.
As we leave the main building, like most places we visited, you have to pass through the gift shop. But there were some different types of souvenirs in here.
Outside, were different viewing areas to take photos of the big leaning tower that we saw as we drove in the carpark. This too, was a time to have some fun.
We have to leave here to push on toward our destination. Passing the magnificent Lake Hawea on the way.
As we continue on our way, we stop off and view a very high waterfall in a beautiful rain forest area. (Another place I have forgotten the name of).

And we had to be well covered in insect repellant in here, as the place had so many sand flies from this point on. Next stop was a trout farm set back off the road, where we had lunch.
Our next stop – Fox Glacier.
