The City of Angels

We had a day lay over in LA which was so great, we got to spend some time with Barrie and Aunt Ruthie. I loved it, the weather was kinda grey but it was so nice to be out of the plane!

We went to Hollywood and pretended to be v busy and important

luckily jord kinda knew where we were going cos this map baffled me.

New Zealand - part three the road trip!

When Jord and I were looking for flights back to Auckland the prices were ridiculous, we had forgotten about school holidays, not so well planned, but luckily on one of my seemingly pointless internet hours i found that jucy rentals was doing free relocations of Campas from Queenstown to Auckland! so we decided to take a week and see some of the country... heres alittle bit of the madness, frustration love and brilliance of the trip.

We started in Queenstown (obviously) and drove through Wanaka and Hawea. on our way to the west coast. the west coast, is notoriously wet and i have actually never before seen it clear. so this is historic!

JOrd and I at the Fox Glacier

Kayla, Madeline and I at the Glacier

Okay I dont know what it is, if its just that things are more familiar or if they do just taste better, but this is me stuffing my face (again) with a pie. jordan was kind enough to catch me numerous times in this same postion.

While we were waiting to board the ferry between the islands we happened across this NZ special addition Micky Mouse, Ryker this is for you!!

Passing through the Marlborough Sounds..

Jords hair is back with a vengeance!!

When we got off the ferry I attempted to navigate us through Wellington ( the capitol) in rush hour.. needless to say it did not end well.

OUR CAMPA!

This is me outside the Woman's Suffrage house, NZ was the first country in the world to grant women the vote, (theres your random piece of infomation for the day!)

we tried to do jumping photos.... yeah not a success, but i like the zoolander hair

Chilling on the Supreme court steps

My friend Suyi graced us with presence her for a sweet 1/2 hour of high school catch up

a nice and safe parking spot

KIWIFRUIT! jordans on the bottom right taking a bite, this is how big they grow in the north.

Jord NZ family, the Hynes.

We finally made it to Hamilton, and did a session in the Temple, which was really special, especially as without even knowing it we showed up during my home wards temple week so got to see so many people i love.

Jordan working out how long it would take us to row back in a waka

It was an amazing trip, that i am so grateful we got to do. the weather was crazy beautiful and we didnt kill each other! so all and all a great success. sorry about the super long post. XOXO

New Zealand! II

Queenstown! the mountains never fail to make me feel completely at home.

this is my amazing friend Jessica who along with the 3 below graciously let Jord and I crash with them and put up with our constant drama.

Ramy, Syndey and Tom! 3 of my favourite people in the world, GO DUCKS!!!

another perfect moment, this one is over the harbour in Auckland
