Kathryn’s Experience in New Zealand
New Zealand is a beautiful place to be at. Oh, how to began. Well, I guess I’ll start with the most exciting things we did! Well, as you can imagine, we had to go and see Hobbiton. I mean, we’re in New Zealand, and that’s one of the big reasons we came to New Zealand. How to began….. we got on the tour bus and headed over the the lush green hills of Hobbiton, starting at one of the smaller hobbit holes. It was so interesting and fun. But what amazed me… Read More

With campervans, you can either pay to stay at a campsite (which often provides showers and restrooms, as well as electrical plug ins and dump… Read More
New Zealand Through Danny’s Eyes
Hot water beach On the second day of our journey in NZ we went to…Hot Water Beach!!! As we walked to the beach from our camper van, we saw a very big black eel in a lake about 30 meters from the beach! None of us got pictures I think because we hurried to the beach. When we got there, there were jacuzzis already dug up for us! The water under the sand was warm and hot. The first jacuzzi we got in was a little too cold so me moved on… Read More
