From sublime beaches to amazing Hobbiton, this vacay has already exceeded our expectations...and we still have five days to go.
For your entertainment, here are some pics of our trip...I'll post more when I get back home to Brisbane. I'm trying to post more now, but my connection is quite slow...AND I want to get back to the beach!

Including HOBBITON!
One day, I hope YOU get to come to New Zealand!
Oh. My. Goodness. The surroundings look amazing--as if nearly untouched by the hands of modern man. Hope your brood is having a fabulous time! Looking forward to more pics...
ReplyDeleteHi Karen!
ReplyDeleteNZ is beautiful and your photos are too! I want to thank you for all your comments and support on my blog. I only seem to get to it every couple of months, but it's lovely to know someone cares....bahahaha! Your blog is fascinating and I could easily while away many hours here... but unfortunately lesson prep calls and I must away to print cassowary colouring sheets and mazes else I'll feel guilty tomorrow.
Thanks again and enjoy NZ - my bro lives there - he is Animation Supervisor for The Hobbit!
xx Catherine.
PS Hope you can make it to Sutton's Beach one day soon!
Those are some pretty sweet rock formations! Also, love the hobbit home. It's my husband& i's dream to build one in the country where we can grow our own food.
