We are rather excited about our plans to spend December in New Zealand…
We have an extra long Winter Holiday because of the way Ramadan and Eid fall this year, so it seemed like the perfect time to go. Yes, we are supposed to be saving up but we may never have four weeks off in December again, and I really want to see New Zealand in the summer. Also, according to several NZers who live here, we got bargainous tickets. Plus, as an added bonus, on the way out we are squeezing in a visit to Vicky in Bangkok so we can meet her baby who will be about two months old by then.
Once in New Zealand, the plan is to see relatives near Auckland (both Steve and I have NZ relatives), then tour southwards to Nelson where Paul and Lisa now live. We’ll also get down to see Steve’s friend, Stuart, and his family in Christchurch.
We have already grilled our Kiwi friends about where to go and what to see and everything sounds amazing. If you have been there and have any must-sees then let us know.
