50 Years of Fun. Perched atop glorious Bob’s Peak, Skyline has been the cherry on top of Queenstown since the mid-60’s when a group of inventive local pioneers built the gondola – the first one in the Southern Hemisphere. The gondola brought Queenstown to the international stage, spurred the growth of the area, and has since been a hallmark of Queenstown (and New Zealand) tourism. Fifty years on, present day, Skyline has remained a central part of the Wakatipu – it’s what gives Queenstown its wow factor. If you only had one day in Queenstown, Skyline would be the place to go. From bungy jumping, to mountain biking, to luging, it has all the quintessential Queenstown activities all wrapped up in one beautiful place. The vision of those Skyline pioneers needs to be applauded. What would Queenstown be without its gondola? And the question has to be asked, would it ever get built today? Probably not, given the “adverse visual effects” argument of the Resource Management Act. In my hometown back in Santa Cruz California, our star attraction is a seaside amusement park built in 1907 – charming from afar with an original wooden rollercoaster, but not the most reputable community asset in 2017. The Boardwalk is beloved by tourists, but snubbed by locals as a major culprit for most of the rubbish on the nearby beaches. Skyline is not that kind of tourist attraction. Unlike the Boardwalk, Skyline’s stakeholders have a vested interest in maintaining its connection with the environment. The planned mega milliondollar upgrade to the gondola and associated buildings is a commitment from the owners that Queenstown will never be left with a once wonderful but now tired old attraction. A lot of that commitment comes from the locally owned and operated investment mentality we are lucky enough to have in Queenstown. AJ Hackett, NZSKI, Real Journeys are other examples.

Not only is Skyline at the centre of Queenstown’s successful tourism industry, it’s a driving force in the district’s economy and an embedded part of the community. It’s one of the few corporations that funnels money back into the community, supporting more than 60 organisations and charities. Just think how different Queenstown would be without this major benefactor. If you haven’t been up to Skyline yet, now is the time to go. November marks their 50th birthday and they have tons of events and specials on all month long to celebrate, including 50% off gondola and luge rides this Saturday (18th November) for locals. This month is not only an important milestone for Skyline, but Queenstown tourism as a whole. Skyline is the ‘good kind’ of tourist attraction, and one I feel good about supporting with my tourist dollars. Haley Turner Californian in Kiwiland

Remarkables Park Parking
I came out to Remarkable’s Park on Friday, went to yoga, went to get my hair cut and then walked up to the supermarket. When I got back to my car I had been stung with a $65 parking ticket. Shock horror I know. Then when I looked around the carpark to find these two hour parking signs they were hidden in overgrown bushes? Tutt Tutt Tutt. The older lady next to me had been given a parking ticket and when me and her got talking, she said she had spent the whole day out here shopping and lunching in the cafe.
Sooo, let me get this straight? Your punishing people for coming out and spending money in your shops? Well I’ll bugger off elsewhere. I know that the shopping centre has been struggling since The Warehouse closed down and the shops have been more quiet, but do they think that stinging people with parking fines is the answer? I’m not shopping out there again... 5 mile has all you need and more and guess what, you can park out there all day! $65 are ya kidding me?

Response from Remarkables Park Since the banning of airport users parking their cars on SH6, we have noticed an increase of cars parking in our carpark for multiple days at a time and thus have had to contract Parking Enforcement Services to come in and ticket over stayers.
In the case of the writer of this whinge and others who have been in a similar situation, we are more than happy to ask PES to waive the tickets of shoppers who have happened to spend longer in Remarkables Park than the 3 hour limit.
While the landing and 5 mile have a 2 hour parking limit we have 3 hours and we have plenty of signs placed in clear view around our car park.
Mirror Mirror Dear road users, I know everyone loves to complain about trucks and buses - especially buses. And I get it. They can be slow, difficult to pass, and the drivers are arrogant, nonpulling over t#*!’s right?
Another thing - we don’t want to hold you up! But in case you haven’t noticed, there aren’t a lot of passing options around here and if in the few places where we can and I don’t know you’re there, then I wont pull over.
But here’s a question for you. When you are following that bus can you see the mirrors? Like, both mirrors, all the time? Or only when turning a corner?
Oh, and if you’re driving like a t*!# yourself then there’s no way I’m pulling over and I have no qualms in stopping you from passing if you decide to pass in a stupid place.
Here’s a little advice from one of those arrogant drivers - We don’t have a back window or a camera showing us what’s behind us.
Respect our 18 tonne 50 seater buses and we’ll respect your little 2 tonne car.
Those buses are long and solid and we have limited visibility. There’s a little old saying “if you cant see my mirrors, I can’t see you” and if you can only see one mirror sometimes well, what if I’m not looking in that mirror at that time?
I’ve literally been in the middle of an Egyptian desert and had better WiFi than I’m getting at most hostels/hotels here. Is this a general thing for residents too?
Isn’t it amazing that in China you can obtain a driving licence by taking a “driving simulator” then you can take the same licence without any actually theory or practical test and come to New Zealand and rent a 2 ton Highlander on some of the most challenging roads in the world. Yet if you go to Raratonga, a country within the commonwealth with less traffic lights than Omaru, you have to take a driving test to rent a car. Amazing hey? Until someone of political note gets taken out by a speeding rental car, the death toll by foreign drivers will continue to rise and before the next person jumps in with “Locals are just as bad’ I’ve never had a near miss with a local but in the triple digits with a foreigner.
Danny Dyers Chocolate Homunculus
Further to that Danny, do you realise that many people who obtain their drivers licences in China, have NEVER actually driven a car until they get here... hey have only “driven” a simulator... no wonder they dont know what they are doing.
Mr Greeny

New Zealands Wifi (Or Lack Of) New Zealand possibly has the worst mobile phone coverage and WiFi I’ve ever known. You’d think being a first world country it would at the very least have decent WiFi or coverage.
Tourist Drivers - 625
I’ve traveled the south and the north and it seems to be a running theme... And yes, I get that there are thousands upon thousands of things to do outdoors without the need of WiFi which is great, but hey everyone needs to check in on the internet every once and a while and it would be nice if there was some decent coverage somewhere! New Zealand, step up your internet game please.
KT
That’s a really nice sentiment and timely so thank you. But just to clarify a freedom camper was not necessarily a suspect of the Rat Point fire. A camper was located that had been seen in the area but was proven to be not involved. For all fire safety information please check fireandemergency. nz that also has links to fire permitting in the district. Also I run a fire risk management page for Fire and Emergency New Zealand locally so check that out too for area specific information. Search Fire Risk Management Central North Otago and you should find it. Thanks again.
