I was in Queenstown, New Zealand over the St. Patrick’s Day weekend this year, which in itself was a wonderful (and crazy) time to be there.
A few days before we arrived, we had hurriedly booked a deal through Priceline for a low cost hotel deal and had no idea what to expect but knowing that we may be drunk/hungover, we really weren’t looking forward to a hostel (or dorm room) full of other drunk/hungover people that weekend. Luckily for us, the hotel turned out to be half empty and so we were upgraded to a balcony room with this view over the lake.
Waking up on a sunny Saturday morning with a mimosa in hand was a great way to start St. Patrick’s Day and this view proved that sometimes a last minute risk (and spending a little extra than you would like) sometimes pays off.
