Skip, Hop, Frolic.

The photographs! Are coming! Hoorah!

In the form of a zip file that is currently zooming across the internet from Jason's computer to my computer, floating swiftly through the information super highway.

I can't wait to see them. And share them. Aren't you excited?

I did take my camera with me on holidays, but we used J's camera for the majority of the time. What's the point in wasting two batteries? Or taking double pictures of the exact same thing? My camera came with me on the days we were doing separate optional activities, though. Like when he was jumping out of a plane at 15,000 feet and I was doing a lovely nature walk. Oh, and when he was doing the super ginormous Nevis bungy jump and I was pottering around the bush on the back of a horse. (I swear, I did the scary stuff too!)

Consequently, his camera had all the stunning nature photographs and pictures of us on it, which are the ones I'm hoping are fabulous. You'll see why, shortly.

As for my camera?

It has pictures of the canyon that I jumped off. (Holy crap!)

I also managed to snap a demented looking photo of my horse.

(Bloody thing kept moving! You'd think it was alive or something.)

Hrm. What else. Oh, I did manage to get some pictures of sheep. What good trip to New Zealand doesn't feature sheep?

(No comments about why the lady is bending over the sheep, alright? Let's keep this blog family friendly, folks.)

Oh, yes! How could I forget? I also managed to snap a picture of a kiwi on one of my solo days. I was ever so proud.

(They're cute wee buggers, yes? Apparently, they dislike flashes.)

Now can you see why I'm excited to see the rest of our trip photos? Hee, I crack myself up sometimes.

    Aly, that canyon is beautiful, but I don't think I'd wanna jump off there.

  9. Kiwi's are the bird with the long beaks and they look kind of like an anteater?
