New Zealand

New Zealand was a blast. I think I could honestly live there. I was nervous about the long plane ride with Max but he did better than I did because he had his own bed.
Here is a list of some of the fun activities we did in New Zealand
*Took a ferry to Rangitoto
*Hiked Rangitoto (the Kiwis called Hiking tramping) So we Tramped Rangitoto

*Went to a Park of beautiful Trees

*Kind of hiked (Tramped)a black sand beach but it was raining so bad that we had to head back.
* Took a train trip to Wellington
*Saw the base of Mount Doom
*Took a Lord of the Rings tour
*Walked around Wellington
*Took a cable car ride up the hill
*Walked a beautiful garden down the hill (I could walk it every day)
*Took a plane ride back to Auckland
*Walked the Takapuna Beach about one Minute from Micheal's parents house.
*Went to North head visiting center where they had there military based for World War II
*Walk another beach
*Went to the Church office building in Takapuna about a five minute walk from Micheal's parents house.
*Went to the Auckland Zoo and saw some Kiwi birds

*Went to the Temple in Hamliton

*Went to Sheep World

*We went to Auckland's harbor
*We went Wind surfing at lake that is in a crater of a volcano

*We went to the Auckland Museum
*We Went to church
*Some of the little things we did was we played Settlers every night. Micheal's mom made us dinner every night. YUM

It was a great trip. We had so much fun. My favorite was the wind surfing, sheep world and all it. Some of Michael favorite things was visiting Wellington, Wind surfing and just relaxing. We do wish that we had a little more time to be there because there were many things that we wanted to do but just did not have the time for them.

Here are some more of our favorite pictures:
