Karen's last day

After we got back into the city from Mt Cook we went up the Gondola in Christchurch. By the time we got there it was almost closed so the lady let us ride for free. We couldn't get off at the top but got some good pictures from the gondola anyways.

 

Excited to go up the gondola!
 

The view of the city from about halfways up
 

When we got to the top it was really really windy and a little bit scary!

 

But we survived!

Okay I realize that there aren't a lot of pictures of the view from the gondola, haha, but it was getting a bit dark so the picture taking wasn't that great. The view was still great in person though!
