It is Day 20 of our 23-day break, and we are finally back home.
On Christmas Eve, two friends from the States arrived, and we spent the next four days with them before they headed down to Queenstown to do some bungee jumping and we set off to do some tramping.
Our 3-day/2-night hike in Tongariro was delayed once due to rain (constant, heavy, downpours) and a second time due to cold and wind (with a chance of snow!). Our break plans revolved around this tramping trip, so we had to improvise, which involved a lot of eating, drinking, adventuring and Lord of the Rings nerding. It also involved lots and lots and lots of driving - we spent time in Auckland, Waiheke, Waitomo, Tongariro, Taupo, Turangi, Rotarua, Taihape, Martinborough, Wellington and Ohakune.
Below is an overview of our trip in pictures. Stay tuned for more details!
