Wow!
I think this is my favorite post of yours ever! How cool! I didn't realize that you each planned a leg of the trip... that is awesome! I'm adding going to NZ to my bucket list. :)

NZ Day 3
It looks so incredibly beautiful there! I definitely want to go now. It looks like you got to see such a variety of things (even in just the first few days--I can't wait to see the rest)--ocean, hills, seal colonies. Wow. I agree with Cel--that is so neat that you guys each planned a leg of the trip. Awesome.
