New Zealand was a real adventure and the people are amazing. It’s hard to believe that so much beauty is only visible to a few people and a lot of sheep. I definitely understand why the Lord of the Rings was filmed there. Also cool to go scuba diving and skiing (and skydiving) in one honeymoon.

Turned out our hotel manager also worked at the skydiving spot we had seen a lot of advertising for but were a little nervous to do it. After meeting her, we signed up and did it the next day overlooking the mountains – aptly called “The Incredibles.”
