New Zealand

Winter in Queenstown is one long party that kicks off with the opening of Coronet Peak ski resort. Queenstown is the "adventure capital of the world": you can bungee jump, heli-ski, sky-dive, luge, horse-ride, ice-skate, jet boat - and of course ski and ride till you drop! The list goes on and on. With time off, everyone scrambles to all these activities whenever they can.
