Everywhere you look the views are amazing. The lighting gets even better after the sun sets! Such a magical hour
Queenstown International Airport is one of the more hazardous (and thus awesome) commercial airports in the world serving large jets. There is only one runway which parallels two mountains chains on both sides that rise over 10,000ft above. The approach brings you in over Kawarau River that winds through the mountains. Once you turn left on final approach, you are met with a short 5,800ft runway, with no parallel taxiway. So when you land, the pilot makes a u-turn and taxi's back to the terminal while still being on the runway.
One of the things I'm going to do more of this year is take more time out to do the things I love the most. Photography and travel
We spoke to an older man fishing on Greenbrier River before approaching this place. A simple 'catch anything?' turned into swapping stories and then him explaining how busy the sawmill used to be, seeing as his father used to work there long ago. He was a local man that lived in Pocahontas County all his life. It was genuine & kind exchange, leading us to explore the abandon even closer.

We drove down February 25, 2024 for our honeymoon and with each winding turn, the mountains were surrounding us more and more. There were so many cabins in the distance, pastures, and quiet stretches of road where we were the only one driving for miles. There were very few small towns. Definitely Country Roads! We giggled, listened to music, and talked the whole time, randomly seeing a mountain or rock face and getting excited.
Everyday we found a new adventure (after taking advantage of the complimentary breakfast each morning, of course) whether it was seeking waterfalls, hiking, playing on the swings, snowboarding, sledding, or exploring railroads. We watched the sunset over the mountains each night of the week we were there, and left the fireplace lit all night to keep us warm. First of many adventures as husband & wife!
