Moeraki Boulders and Omarama Clay Cliffs

by Astrid // January 16, 2016 // No Comments
We had been on the move a lot, and the shorter distance to Omarama the following day was welcomed especially by the girls. On the way we wanted to see the Moeraki Boulders, but other than that, getting to the... Continue reading →

Nugget Point and Dunedin

by Astrid // January 14, 2016 // 5 Comments
At this point, we were all starting to feel our departure from New Zealand closing in on us. We didn’t have anymore fixed plans besides getting to Christchurch where we had to return the motorhome on January 15th. This gave... Continue reading →

Milford Sound

by Astrid // January 13, 2016 // 1 Comment
We nearly missed our boat ride in Milford Sound. We knew how long it would take to get there, but we had left out two important things – the waiting time at the end of the Homer Tunnel, and worse,... Continue reading →

Queenstown and Lake Wakatipu

by Astrid // January 10, 2016 // No Comments
Like most people who travel in New Zealand, we also had plans in Queenstown, New Zealand’s adventure capital. As none of us were particularly interested in near-death experiences aka bungy jumping or skydiving, we had a booking for a jet... Continue reading →

Rob Roy Glacier Valley Walk

by Astrid // January 9, 2016 // 2 Comments
The plan for the day was to walk the Rob Roy Glacier Valley Walk in the Matukituki Valley of an estimated 3-4 hours. We stopped to do some grocery shopping at Wanaka, and when that was taken care of, we... Continue reading →

The Road through Haast Pass to Lake Hawea

by Astrid // January 7, 2016 // 4 Comments
When we left Franz Josef to head South, the weather was no better than the day before. We stopped by Lake Matheson once more, just to have our expectations confirmed – the mountains had not yet returned from their hideaway... Continue reading →

Day of the Glaciers

by Astrid // January 7, 2016 // 1 Comment
The evening we arrived at our campsite in Franz Josef town, the weather was magnificent, we had a gorgeous view of the mountains, and the sandflies were eagerly enjoying us as their buffet. We had a beautiful sunset, and everything... Continue reading →
