ViaggiatoreGood to see your beautiful pictures. My favourite is Lewis's expression on the photo with Jonah on the ferry. Looks like you are having an amazing adventure. Its wet and windy back home - you are definitely in the best place right now. Love to the Loach family from the Parfects.x

Overnight camping with views of Mt Cook
2 dicembre 2018, Nuova Zelanda ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
After looking at Lake Tekapo we went to a campsite next to a lake with lots of mountains surrounding it, one of which is called Mount Cook. We only stayed there for one night. It was really nice.
Viaggiatore
What an incredible view. Its so rare to see something so unspoilt. Its very wet and muddy in Ness this morning.. And cold. I'm off for a very soggy dog walk soon. Ness has some pretty lovely views, even in this weather, but nothing quite so stunning as your picture.x
ViaggiatoreIt is stunning around here, but the UK definitely has equally beautiful scenery, just not on such a grand scale! Hope you don't get too soggy on your dog walk. Hope to join you before too long! Take care x

Wild beaches
6 dicembre 2018, Nuova Zelanda ⋅ ☁️ 9 °C
On Thursday we stayed at a campsite for the night. You wouldn't call it a proper campsite. I think you would call it more of a hippie campsite. It was right next to a beach with choppy waters andLeggi altro
