S'long South Island

Of course, the day I leave, the sun comes out. Still, summer in Queenstown is like summer in San Francisco. Freezing! Time to head up north!

So, on March4/March5, I take my 4th and 5th flights to Rotorua on the North Island. After nearly missing my connection - 30 minutes apart! got in late, different terminals- I squeeze myself and luggage onto a tiny turboprop with no room for luggage- let's just say I caused a "to do." The captain was uber nice and helped me out. Back to Rotorua, it's warmer and It reminds me of East Palo Alto near the airport and Palo Alto further out. I can't wait to explore tomorrow. 

The views out of Queenstown were breathtaking.
