Meh Meh Everywhere

just had to document our first trip together here....a snapshot of the trip for the record

NZcollage

NZ was glorious. The scenary was amazing and the people are so friendly that sometimes i feel tired from answering all the "how are u"s. the country is so big on conserving nature and by that i mean they just try their best to maintain nature at status quo with no intervention or rather disruption by mankind. I believe only in NZ can you get so up close and personal to the natural habitats of seals, penguins, albatross and hmmm... possums (they are like all crushed on the highway, supposedly the biggest pest as they prey on penguins and other wildlife, there are rumored to be 4million of them!). we drove a total of 2850km from Christchurch - Oamaru - Dunedin - Lake Te Anau - Milford Sound - Queenstown - Fox Glacier - Franz Josef - Greymouth - Nelson - Kaikoura - Christchurch.
