What I'm looking at instead of the Internet this month



Seriously, how is this country even a real place? Every time the road bends, you see another mountain in the distance. Just stunning.

I hope everyone is having a good July!

That picture was taken on Monday in Aspiring National Park on the way to Milford Sound. Today I am in Kaikoura (taking pictures of the ocean), and tomorrow we're driving up to Picton to take the ferry to the North Island. Busy, busy!

Also, hello! Crazy to think that I'm actually ahead of you in time for once! :)

oh my goodness, sounds divine <3

Haha, yes you are ahead in time! Have fun in the North Island, can't wait to see more beautiful pictures. I hope it's not too cold for you.

I am having so much fun! Yesterday we went on a LOTR locations tour that also included panning for gold (and I found some!) and fording a river in a 4 by 4. And the sights are just incredible. Mountains everywhere!

We haven't even been here a week yet and I already can't recommend it enough. If you can afford the air fare, you should absolutely visit. SO EXCITING!

Well bugger

You were in my backyard, if I'd known earlier I would have told you all the awesome 'local' spots, deals and things. Oh well, too late I guess. I hope you had an awesome vacation here and that life is treating you well! ^_^

Oh, rats! I wish that I had known that you're from NZ; I would have tried to arrange a meet-up. :(

We did have an amazing time, though, thank you! Yours is a truly beautiful country. Our trip was not quite three weeks long, and we tried to see as much as we could in that time without running ourselves ragged (we mostly succeeded). I wonder if I was breathing your air at any point? We visited a goodly number of cities on both islands (Christchurch, Greymouth, Queenstown, Lake Tekapo, Kaikoura, Picton, Wellington, Auckland, Rotorua, Paihia, Matamata). I'm sorry to have missed you!
