2004 New Zealand

In and around New Zealand

Welcome to our New Zealand Adventure with the Judson's.

This was a planned trip that Sandra and I started and of course the boys thought it was a great idea to go together.

It took several phone call and e-mails to decide on an itinerary that suited us both, espeically because we were living in different cities.
