Luge Running





Following our voyage through the Sound, we drove to Queenstown for our eventual flight back home to Wellington. While in the QT, the boys really wanted to ride the local Gondola up to heights unknown. Everyone except your lovely narrator enjoyed the ride, the views and the subsequent Luge rides that were available at the summit. After all, why stop at the summit? Why not terrorize the height impaired with a swinging chairlift to some godforsaken place just to ride a luge back down to the lookout tower? Alden rode the chairlift solo and was definitely the smallest luge rider out there. He did it three times! His father courageously stayed at the summit taking pictures, this after nearly wetting his armor during the gondola ride. Kudos all 'round.
