New Zealand / Aotearoa



















[will be updated shortly with more details!]

Fri 4th April : Australia to NZ
After not sleeping a wink the night before (due to last minute packing and house cleaning), we finally set off with Delia's father Stef to Adelaide Airport just after 4am. We transited in Melbourne where we met up with Dan's parents and aunt and uncle and then flew on together to Christchurch, NZ. Picked up a campervan, which was to be our trusty steed for the next week.

Sat 5th April : Winchester, South Island
Sam (Dan's brother) and Stacey's big day!

Sun 6th April : Pleasant Point, South Island, NZ
Spent the day chillin' at Stacey's mums place in Pleasant Point - a 'Footrot Flat' type of rural kiwi town.

Mon 7th to Weds 9th April : Wanaka and environs, South Island, NZ
Amazing scenary as we wandered around the Southern Alps.









































The walk up to the Rob Roy Glacier....















































Thurs 10th April : Dunedin, South Island
Relaxing times spent with old friends from Vanuatu.









Fri 11th April : NZ to Brisbane/Gold Coast, Australia
And back to the mainland...;)

And not forgetting the Olam haka....
