The White Winter

A week in Queenstown, just the three of us. Snow, an easy pace, and Élleina's first proper winter. I've built it around what you'll feel like, Angela, so nothing here is set in stone.

How it's looking

Live forecast from Queenstown. Useful for picking which morning we do the snow. It gets more accurate the closer we get.

The week

Day by day

Tap any day to open it: the plan, what to pack, where to eat nearby, a backup if the weather turns, and a spot to add your own notes.

Lock it in

Still to book

Worth sorting before festival week fills up. Tap to mark one done; it saves on this device, so your list and mine stay separate.

Don't forget

What to pack

Late June sits around 0 to 8 degrees, so we'll need more than we own. Tick things off as they go in the bag.

Getting around

Where everything is

Drive times from Hotel St Moritz. Tap any place for live directions.

Eating

Where to eat

Filter by what you're after. All of these are fine for an early sitting with a little one.

All in one place

The details

Flights, transfers, the hotel, and who to call if we need anything, all in one place.

A note for you

Paced around you

The week is built around how you're feeling. Short drives timed to Élleina's naps, snow for a morning rather than a whole day, and an afternoon set aside for you to rest.

I've left the hot pools off the list, they run too warm to be safe at the moment, so your afternoon is a pregnancy massage instead. It's your holiday too.

Not long now.
