We arrived back from our holiday last night after spending 11 nights on the south island of New Zealand.
Here are some of our photos......
This photo is somewhere between Christchurch and Queenstown on our second day. It was taken from the window of our campervan, that we hired, as we travelled along.
The gondola in Queenstown. It is a lot steeper than it looks.
The view of Queenstown from the top of the gondola.
The cafe and coffee shop where I spent some time while the boys snowboarded.
The campervan, we hired, in a caravan park in Queenstown.
A gorgeous church in Queenstown.
Mmmmmm........this sounds interesting.
Me with the mulled wine. The view above is out to the side of where I'm sitting.
Our van and some of the beautiful scenery.
The 'Blue Pools" between Lake Wanaka and Haast.
Franz Joseph Glacier.
Waterfalls on the way to the glacier.
A beautiful rock wall on the way to the glacier.
These are just some of our photos. The south island of New Zealand is full of natural beauty. It is a place we hope to visit again one day.
Welcome back, looked like a magic holiday. I love south island, did a similar trip in campervan and loved it. Snow looks good. Hope you are feeling refreshed after your break!:)
ReplyDeleteYes, thank you Nicole, we are.
DeleteWow. I have heard New Zealand is beautiful, it is on my places to visit list...one day.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a lovely time. Welcome back!
Thanks Kim. Yes, New Zealand is beautiful. From pictures, it reminds me of your beautiful Canada. We hope to go there one day too.
DeleteGorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, Julie! What amazing scenery. You lucky ducks:) So glad you had a wonderful time away. That mulled wine looks delish. I've got the viral thing that Lewi's got. It's horrid! Can't believe how sick we've been this year since that dreaded whooping cough. This one is a shocker. Knocks you out for days. Frist day on the computer today - so lovely to see that you're all home safe and sound and happy. Looking forward to chat and catch up soon, I hope. When we are better and the house is painted. Agh! xx
ReplyDeleteWe look forward to it Kim. Hope you are feeling better. xxoo
DeleteVery beautiful - us Aussies often don't realise what lies just over the pond there. Lots of inspiration for us to find out!
ReplyDeleteSo true.
ReplyDeleteJulie your holiday looks like lots of fun for all of you and those photos you took are stunning, what a special holiday you got to go on as a family and great memories you've now created. Welcome back home. x
ReplyDeleteThank you Catherine. Creating great memories and connecting with each other is exactly why we went on this holiday. Have a great week. xxoo
