I like this new style of video! Even the non-desired results are valuable, in that someone may actually be looking for that particular result for something else and now knows how to achieve it.
As Wellington was an unscheduled stop for us we went expecting to have the chance to go there, but we’re so glad we did, it was great 👍 Thanks for watching.
The amount of history and heritage complementing the scenic locales is overwhelmingly rich...not to be confused with the narrator...I'm pretty sure. It's no wonder The Lord of the Rings franchise had so much richness in its production value on top of what J.R.R. Tolken already had to provide them.
It didn’t dampen our spirits at all at Hobbiton where it was really only a light drizzle and we had such a fabulous time we hardly noticed the weather. It was later in Tauranga when it absolutely fell down and we got soaked 😆 Thanks for watching.
So sorry you could not get into Napier, the Art Deco capital of the world due to them having an earthquake in the 1930s and so all the rebuild was during this period, the Art Deco period. Beautiful buildings. We had a walking tour there by my Māori friend who volunteers there.
I hope they did a safety drill before you kayaked as if you capsized you have to have the presence of mind to get that skirt off. I could never do that, way too scared. Quite dangerous, especially if not a good swimmer. Glad you are both ok.
Yes we had a full briefing before and our guide was very attentive and a very strong kayaker so that put us at ease - though as you say we were very conscious of safety the whole time we were at sea. But it was great fun and the weather was perfect. Picton is stunning. Thanks for watching and commenting 👍
Great video, as usual. NZ is beautiful. Quick unrelated Question if I may. On Regent for the first time in a couple of weeks (Seven Seas Splendor) can you order Champagne to the suite like you can on Silversea?
Well our wonderful butler made sure there was always a bottle of champagne in our fridge without us even asking so yes, we assume so 😁👍 Have a great time and thanks for following our adventures and little channel
The rain was absolutely persisting down !🤣
So much rain!! 😂
Thanks for watching 👍

Say what? 😂
Quite arguably my & the Mrs.’s favorite couple on TH-cam. Lovely video once again.
Thank you so very much 😍
I nearly spit my morning coffee out when you started singing that Ren and Stimpy classic! 🎵 🪵 😂
😂 You win the day! Glad I’ve found another fan of ridiculous cartoons. Bonus point for the name of the company that sells the ‘log’.
I’ll see your Blammo!, and raise you a Royal Canadian Kilted Yaksman ear worm, 😝

😂 Thankfully there’s no Powdered Toast on the breakfast menu!
Loved the Weta workshop!

The ‘white Parrot’ is the Australian Sulfur Crested Cockatoo! One of my favourites.
Thanks for the info. And for watching 👍

Ha. I absolutely know where the log song comes from. I actually laughed out loud. It's always nice when geek recognizes geek.
😂 Someone else with my sense of humour 😂
Thanks for watching 👍
Lovely! Plus bonus Ren & Stimpy!
Haha! Yay! Another R&S fan! 😂
Most interesting and enjoyable. Your stuff is a cut above! 👍
Wow, we’re so pleased you enjoy it. Thank you 🤩
Such a shame it was so wet. Hobbiton looked fantastic

Like you, we like the Vista class as well. We did Alaska on the HAL Zuiderdam and loved the ship and the cruise. Perfect size for us.
Yes we love this class and size of ship 💙
Thanks for watching and commenting 👍
Good ole Ren and Stimpy. "Stimpy you idiot". Miss that show
Haha! Miss it too So random and completely bonkers. 😂

Already planning a return trip to New Zealand so hopefully we’ll get to Napier next time 👍😁
Thanks for watching.
Great video. Lots of fun
Thank you 🤗
We defiantly had fun on that voyage 😍
'Shutting and pussing' is an accent thing, when you consider they pronounce their 'i' as a 'u' sound then the reference to the rain becomes obvious.
Haha! You got it! 😆
Ren and Stimpy
Correct 👍
Thanks for watching ☺️
