New Zealand Thoughts:
It’s got to be one of the most
beautiful countries in the world with such contrasts of
landscape so close together. Tourism may be huge over here with
a million and one things to be done, but just driving around in
either a campervan or car in the sunshine is just the best thing
to do! Shame all the prices have gone up for things compared to
a couple of years ago… Terry
I loved visiting this stunning
country again, it’s such a spectacular place and I would
recommend everyone to visit if they get the chance! Saw some
great places I didn’t see last time which was a big bonus.
Driving is the best way to appreciate the different landscapes
on offer. Too many things to do and not enough time! Only
downside was the drain on cash… Rachel |
