When we arrive, and step out onto the porch... we can hear at least five different species of birds. One of them decides to give us our own private song, does a little dance, and then swoops down right past our noses.
That was the first two minutes.
We spent a week in Queenstown. If we could do it over, we'd plan on an extra day, just to stay at this house and enjoy the birds and the flowers and all the nature.
