We didn’t get to do the heli flight over Franz Josef (so I didn’t think I would have to face my small aircraft fear again on this trip) but on a spectacular day in Lake Wanaka Linz made a snap decision to phone Aspiring Helicopters at lunchtime and organised a flight for 3.30pm the same day.

 Heli skiing valley - James said this about Australian skiing visitors: We drop ‘em at the top, we pick ‘em up at the bottom and we do that all day till they run out of money! |  We didn’t ask for this photo but James just took my camera off me and started clicking so here we are on top of the world |  a great view of the Motukituki River |
 Photographic challenge Capturing the rotor still spinning |  As we drive back to Wanaka, the beautiful Glendhu Bay comes into view |  If I had a caravan, I’d park it there too |
I'm impressed, did you really do it?
