Oh hai, I can haz New Zealand?

[flere-imsaho]

The wife & I just returned yesterday from our trip to New Zealand, where we had a terrific time. I highly recommend visiting the country to anyone. I'm only a little jet-lagged now. :D

Anyway, some pictures:

The Lantern Festival we stumbled upon in Auckland's Albert Park:

Here's the Morom Tabernackle. Here's the dog that tried to bite me. Here's the deed; if this was a all legible you'd see it.

Absolutely beautiful. If I could figure out a way to move there with my family I would strongly consider it.

Thanks for sharing the pics!

dola,

i'm looking at your web album and whoever took those has a good photographic eye. I really liked the Auckland Museum pic with the stairs. Good stuff.

What a beautiful country! Hey, you are very lucky to have experienced that. Looks like the weather could not have been better. I would definately enjoy that trek.
