NZ, we have arrived


Our flight from Sydney went without a hitch and on Friday afternoon we landed in Queenstown. Flying over the south island was just spectacular. As we made our descent, I realised that this really was middle earth. With the mountain tops popping through the clouds and then coming clear, I couldn't help but expect Orks chasing after some hobbits.

So far, I'm falling for this town. The mountains, the lake and the blue skies have done us a world of good.  Over the next few days we'll be looking for work and a roof over our head, sorting out our new home for the time being.

There is a lot of work a head, but there is no where I'd rather be right now.

Its pretty amazing. Although I was expected all the Kiwis to be like Bret and Germaine from flight of the conchords. So far no one has broken into song. Gutted.
