Flying back to the North Island NZ

Well on Monday we had a last walk around at Dunedin and here is one of many of the lovely churches 😊

and another which is now a bar......The Monkey Bar

we packed up all our stuff and were ready for a drive back to Queenstown for 1 night....

I got to see this cute shot of little baby Cooper who I will MEET next week when back home again 😇

Paul says hello to you all again 

our kind of view from the motel unit in Queenstown and just took it easy as we were flying yesterday (Tuesday) to Auckland

The mountains called "The Remarkables" took this snap while waiting to take hire car back 

I found quite a good spot to watch planes take off and land 😊

our shadows standing on a concrete block to get a better view.....

and there goes a plane just past the tree and going past the mountain.....Dad's ashes are up there so a lovely place for him to be 💜

up up and away......

Now at the airport watching others boards their plane 

Woody excited waiting in the bag

he then sat on a table and watched planes taxi by.....made 2 men passing smile lol 

NZ644 is us 

out plane landing

ready for other passengers get off.....

now you of course are going to see lots of flying wing shots lol Woody likes this seat the best 

turning at the end of the runway.....

racing along 

up in the air passing the airport 

great view back down and we sure have had great weather 

beautiful blue water lakes below 

and blue sunny sky with snow capped mountains 😊

but oh dear, as we got close to the North Island....rain....cloud....cool lol 

wings expanding for the landing as we fly through the clouds 

seeing bits of land below once under the cloud 

winging our way over the last bit of sea 

down on the runway

brakes on and always amazing to watch.....

well....hope you liked that little flight and our trip....

still continuing for a little bit yet xoxoxoxo

Now on to Dunedin in NZ

Well look at this cute smiling cat I found in a street of Wanaka while walking back to our Villa and got to see it a few times and very friendly so I was very happy to get my fur patting fix here lol 

nice kitty.....

we did a brief visit to this distillery and had a wee sample of gin/vodka/orange liqueur nice but a tad overpriced lol  

nice views here though and worth the drop in 

Today we hit the road for our next destination while still on the South Island of New Zealand 

Paul happily driving along lol 

We drove across this bridge near the town of Alexandra info here and crossed over the Clutha  river and interesting old constructions still there 

snapping as we cross fast......great camera

and arrived in Dunedin info here and we have been before but not stayed in this little place right near plenty of things.....a neat studio with bed as you can see...

bit of a couch now with our cases and Woody relaxing lol 

little kitchen with sink/fridge/kettle 

and bathroom with open shower.....no curtain nice and breezy lol 

there is some lovely architecture here and mini things compared to Dunedin in Scotland but hey I like.....

a church standing tall in the centre of town 

We stopped in at this place for a light lunch and light cider, very nice 

this is at the station where we checked out what train trip we could go on this time....

amazing building and Paul heading in to check the coastal trip we could do tomorrow (Saturday) 

walking back to our accommodation took a snap of a building under renovations and did love the architecture again as we did while in Europe and UK.....

a fountain no longer having the water through now 

oh and a bat or gargoyle......

this little brass figure just standing in town to enjoy 

plenty of artwork done throughout the town 

and again 

there were lions on this building holding chains in their mouths to hold up the awning roofs over the street but zoom not good enough....oh well 

and very interesting this one is lol 

and back to the accommo for the next few nights.

well now back in our room relaxing and ready for a seaside kind of trip on a train tomorrow

xoxoxoxoxoxo love to you all out there xoxo
