Going to NZ

Starting from today we will begin a series of posts on our trip to New Zealand which we are still on. The coverage of this trip will span quite a few posts as it is quite a long trip of over 3 weeks. 

The first day of our trip we flew to Christchurch on the south island of New Zealand. Uncle Richie caught a slightly different flight from us flying business class with Emirates (oolah la la so fancy), but we met up perfectly upon landing. SV didn't seem to mind the budget flight we were on though. SV met a couple of the locals when we landed before we headed to pick up our caravan. We rented a 6 person caravan which seems to be just up to the task of taking the four of us. It's quite comfortable though, and we set off right away to Hanmer Springs for the hot pools.
