Finishing School for VIP Ladies
Yet all that we learned in class paled in comparison to the
extracurricular activities, which included everything from horseback
riding to a 300-foot waterfall, where we went abseiling (for the
uninitiated, attaching yourself to both a guide and a rope and
rappelling down the side of a mountain) to sky-diving from 12,000
feet, to zipping in a helicopter from the beaches of Queenstown to its
snowy peaks. Every last one of these was arranged by a debonair Brit
named Jean-Michel Jefferson, a well-established provider of VIP tours.
The resorts we stayed in during those adventures – places such as
Treetops Lodge in Rotorua and Eagles Nest in the Bay of Islands –
were gloriously indulgent.
