The Deep South


We've been lucky enough to have had Josh's mom Dee come to visit. It's been lovely to hang out and show someone new around Wellington.
Also awesome that we got to travel to the south island and see some more of NZ's spectacular scenery. And I'm not just saying that for flattery of the country - it is seriously amazing...

Thus, let's begin the photographic journey of our trip:

Flying in as the mountains peek through the clouds..


In Arrowtown, which is a small goldrush town


This is a tiny shack from the chinese village that existed during the gold rush..


In the Eglinton Valley - SO amazing!! It was carved by a glacier - and is steep mountains either side, then this golden grass along the bottom without trees. I've never seen anything like it!


Mirror Lakes


Me on Milford Sound - I can't believe we got to go!!


More Milford

Me outside the Skyline Queenstown with...SNOW!!!


View of the Remarkables from Queenstown

So, that's all for now...but yes it was AMAZING.

BIG thanks to Dee for taking us! xxx
