South Island Road Trip

We have loved spending time in beautiful, friendly New Zealand and a camper van is the only way to go. It has been our faithful companion coast to coast, over mountains, through gorges, fiords, waterfalls, beach forest, along beaches, countryside, in sunshine and in rain. We have slept in a different campsite every night (except in Queenstown where we spent two nights) and have cooked most of our meals. Jon has been a fabulous driver and hasn't had any problems driving on the other side... It's been really great! The landscape is phenomenal and the people are so friendly....tons of tourists, as expected, but they are from all over the world and are great to chat with. One of the things we really admire about the Kiwis is their dedication and great care of the natural environment and its preservation. It is of great importance here, and the air is so clean and clear and the land well cared for. We hope to carry that awareness with us!

Here are a few highlights of the trip:
