After 6 years, I finally have the chance to go back to New Zealand to see its beautiful scenery and great people there.
The last trip was only me and my sister, Phoebe, when she went there to further her education. Now she is living the way of the Kiwis and pretty much settled there.
This trip is to pay her a visit and also to meet our prospective brother in law, Liam, and his family. So the entire family went over and they decided to plan a road trip round the south island for sightseeing and experience the life of the Kiwis.
Usually I will write a load of compositions to describe my trips. This time I decide to try a new approach, I let the pictures do the narrating. :)
Christmas decoration @ Changi Airport Terminal 3
1 more hour to touchdown. Took the sunrise from the window.
On the way to Liam/Phoebe's home. Even the suitcase needs to belt up keke
Playing with Phoebe's pet dog, Rumba. Think he's the only known Cocker Spaniel to shake his bum instead of his tail lol
Liam fixing a pot filter to Phoebe's Mazda after I drove around and told her about the engine sluggishness
Taking a walk in the forest park (the forest is actually barricaded to protect the kiwi birds)
The first Dean's cottage in Christchurch
The beach of Kaikoura
The town of Kaikoura
One of the seals lazing on the rocky beach of Kaikoura
Liam trying to touch one of the resting seals, with no success lol
Sunset @ Cullen Point
Smith Farm Lodge @ Queen Charlotte Lane
Wharf @ Mahau / Beach @ Cowshed bay
Mussel Pot @ Havelock, Marlborough
Waterfall @ Forest trail behind Smith Farm. Water is cold and drinkable :)
Naturally chilled beer anyone?
Pork ribs and Lobsters (locals called them Crayfish, don't ask me why) cooked by Liam and siblings. Seriously, they tasted awesome!
To be continued in Part 2
