Oh Holidays Holidays

It seems but a moment ago that we arrived in New Zealand and started our tour and yet here we are contemplating the last few days on the South Island.

It is true that there is only one philosophy and that life is for living. Boy have we certainly done that while here. Since 2nd Feb when I last posted our list of achievements we’ve done so much more ( and have the credit card bill to prove it).

So, we have:

Completed five luge rides each in total
Done both Skyline cable cars North and South
Got splashed on the Buller Gorge Jet Boat
Raced 40kph on the tandem zipwire
Listened to Mr Fogg laughing on the Supaman zipwire
Watched the sunset over Pancake Rocks and the upside down moon
Route Marched up and down a glacier
Been munched on by Sandflies
Admired driftwood art in Hokitika
Held a large gold nugget
Nearly been poisoned in The Bushmans Cafe Pukeville
Coached, cruised and flew to Milford Sound
Ate Horace
Segwayed around Queenstown
Visited the longest place name
Looked at “my precious” at Weta Caves
Enjoyed the Interislander ferry trip
Walked barefoot in the dark
Worn flip flops everywhere and no cold feet
Slept in over 20 different beds
Bought too much
Ate too much
Slept too little
Sampled local wines at twice the price of the average cost for a bottle in the UK (nice though!!!)

And much much more…….

And next we have the LOTR tour to Glenorchy where much of the external film shots were made.

Time for a rest later then..
