More From New Zealand

 I got the sweetest note from my niece Emily this morning.
The one with the adventurous spirit who lives in New Zealand.
The one who said long ago New Jersey is nice, 
but I want to be surrounded with towering mountains and untamed scenic landscapes...
golden beaches and colors that paint the sky.
An island country where streams and quiet bays are everywhere...

- here is what she was talking about -























- even when someone is far away -
- we are under the same sky, looking at the same sun, moon & stars -

Ew Zealand is one of the most beautiful places in the world. We loved it! You must go, Debbie!

Oh my goodness...what amazing photographs! It really is a beautiful country and it's great that she's able to get out and photograph nature. Makes me wish I could go! Oh, I put an ID on my butterfly and I hope it's right. I think it's a Zebra Swallowtail! Hugs!

Gorgeous pictures and sure does look peaceful with not another soul in sight, I know Greg would love to live there, I like to visit but not live there. Love the end quote, that is so true!

Gorgeous pics, (except for the mean fishie.) Doesn't look like anyone has to mow the yard there. Linda in Kansas, where the scenery is the exact opposite.

Debbie said...

Those are incredible images of New Zealand. My hubby and I had planned on taking a trip this year for our anniversary but with the pandemic we were afraid to book the trip only to have it cancelled on us. With things opening up now we are going to book it for next year. Might need to show him these pictures as this is our kind of place to visit.

Those are just stunning! Incredible landscape! It would be difficult to imagine a more beautiful place to live.
