With the very long days, and glorious weather, we then went for a drive to sleepy little Glenorchy at the NW extremity of Lake Whakatipu.

Then back to Queenstown and out to historic Arrowtown late in the day.

Back to Queenstown and dinner at The Cow. It’s an iconic resto in Queenstown that’s been there since 1977. An old dairy or stables down Cow Lane. Now surrounded by tall buildings and upmarket shops.


Even though it’s a Queenstown icon, it’s a little away from the wharf area.


Anyway, I ate here with my family in about 1993 after squeezing in; similarly in 2011 when I was travelling solo. It rocked in those days, people queuing to get in.


It was fairly busy inside (duck your head), but we opted to sit outside, given the glorious evening and quietness. A table of four had just finished up, so we had peace and quiet by ourselves. Frankly, it was really nice to be away from the zoo around the wharf.


We were late eating, and they stopped taking new customers shortly after we arrived, so it may have been a lot busier earlier.


Simple food – pizzas and pasta, and a pretty good wine list.


A cracking end to a top day.
