Great Walking: The Milford Track
An adventure many years in the making – a challenge and its rewards
In love with Wanaka
We had an amazing time in Wanaka, so much so we just want to go back immediately and stay there forever.
Queenstown 2017
Back to Queenstown, three years after our last visit. This time we were only there to bookend 7 nights in Wanaka, but we still squeezed a lot in!
Review: Cardrona Skifield
3 days on Cardrona was both enough (exhausting) and nowhere near enough (loved the place). Definitely looking forward to a return to the skifield in two years time!

ANZAC Weekend Camping
The downside of camping in Autumn is that you have limited daylight hours.
We had a choice – first morning sun, or last afternoon sun – for our tent site. We opted for last afternoon sun. Which meant the inside of our tent was still cold (and the outside still damp), until the sun arrived around 11:30am. However, we also kept the sunshine until after 4pm. Other than one foggy morning and one breezy evening, we had still, calm, clear weather for 4 straight days.
The List: Summer in Taupo
Do everything, or do nothing. Taupo has you covered both ways, and with great summer weather, we enjoyed as much as we could!
