After a couple of days in Wellington Jon and I took a three day trip to Queenstown, in the South Island. We hadn’t gotten a chance to visit the South Island on our first trip to New Zealand five years ago, so we were pretty excited to be able to explore some other areas this time around.
On our second day in Queenstown we hopped a bus for a six hour ride out to the Milford Sound. Along the way were some of the most breathtaking scenery I’d ever seen. It’s the stuff you see in the movies.
No, really. It’s where they filmed Lord of the Rings.
^^ I pointed out every sheep we saw along the way. I’m sure it wasn’t annoying. At all. ^^
These are amazing!! I’m so jealous.
Absolutely stunning views!
Amazing pictures! It’s seriously beautiful there. You’re lucky your sister is there, so you just have to visit every once in a while
The South Island is unbelievably beautiful. You certainly captured the beauty of it!
What beautiful photos – the scenery & all those colors are just gorgeous!
You are the most beautiful preggie I’ve ever met so far
The hiiiilllls are alive, with the sound of muuuusic. Looks like such a relaxing place. Which reminds me that I need to try and travel more with the kiddo.
