Bowled Over by South Island



My first views of New Zealand's South Island from the air were stunning, and it just kept on getting better and better. I hired a campervan, picked it up, bought a bunch of groceries and camping gear and just headed out of Queenstown into unbelievably spectacular scenery: towering ice-covered mountains, silvery lakes, lush temperate forest. This is, without doubt, the most beautiful country I have ever seen.

  1. Oooh, you write about it so beautifully; I am sorely tempted to drop the kids with grannies (one each) and hop on a plane!
