QUEENSTOWN!! (I'm trying not to think about how much more snow will be there in Winter ....) |
The Sparky, his brother and sister-in-law will spend a day or two skiing and I, well I'm looking forward to doing not much at all. We'll be away for less than a week so, as I said, it's only little but right at the moment it's little things like this that are keeping me sane!
P.S. Yes, this is simply my effort to buy myself an extra week to work out what to say in my next Switaly11 post.
Awesome! That will be such a gorgeous holiday. My only time in NZ has been spent in Auckland, so looking forward to hearing about your Queenstown adventures!
ReplyDeleteThanks Erin. The last time we went was a rushed day and a half where we saw the major touristy stuff but that was all. I'm really looking forward to experiencing it at a slower pace this time.
DeleteSqueee! I long to return to NZ! Would definitely skip the skiing though :P
ReplyDeleteDouble, triple, quadruple squeee, all things considered :)
DeleteIt is however a good thing that I didn't realise it would actually be snowing in Queenstown (not just on the mountains) until after we'd booked. There may have been second thoughts otherwise ...
Waaaaaaaaa I want to plan my next holiday too!
ReplyDeleteTeehee, I don't let things like time and money get in the way of my "planning". In fact I have about four plans going at the moment, at least three of which will probably never happen! There's something about the planning and research though that I really enjoy - but then again maybe I'm just mad! ;)
Deletephew.. what a beautiful place.
ReplyDeleteThe whole country is beautiful. I have a feeling that view will be very different this time around, particularly given that we'll be there towards the end of Winter rather than the middle of Spring (which is when that photo was taken).
DeleteOh yes! I understand what you mean by having a holiday to keep you sane. Beautiful choice!
ReplyDeleteA Winter holiday wouldn't have been my first choice but I'm still very much looking forward to it!
DeleteQueenstown is gorgeous-have fun! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, we're definitely looking forward to it!
DeleteHey, where've you been all my life?! Hope you've got some more posts coming up :)
ReplyDeleteShhhhh, no one was supposed to notice! :)
DeleteTruth be told, I've been struggling a little with both time and composition but I decided this morning that I'm over thinking it all and that simple is probably better. Hopefully I'll have something new up at lunch time ...
