New Zealand's country side

Ted and I decided to go on a holiday out of the hustle and bustle of Auckland city. We started our journey at 8.30am and headed to McD's first for our favorite Bacon and Egg McMuffin Combo wit a nice hot chocolate. Then we drove down south to our first stop, Matamata in Hamilton to see the LOTR movie set. WEEE~ We've always wanted to see the site since it has been such a big part of NZ. I've never driven out of Auckland so we were kinda scared. We've seen too much horror movies such as Wrong Turn, Texas Chainsaw (real scary) bla bla.....hahaha
But not to worry I've got the maps.........we had to ask the lady at the first petrol station and that was it! We found the place quite easily. It took us 2 and a half hours to get there. Hai! Butt ache! We checked ourselves onto the tour and off we went visiting at 12.15pm. HOBBITON HERE WE COME!!!!!!!!!



That's the tour bus that we would be getting on!
I'm so bloody excited!



We're there!
Some of the hobbit holes has been taken down and it didnt look how it did in the movie. That's because the movie company had to destroy what they put up so this is what's left of it





That's the Shire behind us.....ermmmm.....what's left of it



We're in Bag End where Frodo and Bilbo Baggins lived



Recognise that round tree at the back? It was in the movie too along with the lake



It was the party tree

We left Matamata at around 3 for Taupo. It's another 3 hours North and once again I've to rely on the map.



Here's a picture of what's NZ famous for........sheeps all over a hill haha



At least the long drive wasnt that bad. This is what we see on NZ highways.
In Malaysia all we see are trees burnt or being burnt coz it's too hot hehe

We checked into the motel we booked a day before at about 5. The motel was so cosy and affordable. They even gave us a 1 bedroom suite facing the lake. Lake Taupo is the most famous lake in NZ. It's huge and it has waves. If u didnt know u would think u're staying by the beach. It was formed by a volcanic eruption centuries ago and now the volcano is still under the lake. YIKS! haha


Look at that lake! We'll be paying for a 5 star suite if we were in Malaysia to get that view.

We took our showers right after that and went out for dinner. Not that we know of where to go and what to eat. We just drove around looking and hogging the road....naah! Not much traffic in a town with 16 thousand ppl especially at nite. Everything closes at 5 or 6. DUMB!





We found this little Italian shop tucked in a corner called Papa's pizza parlor or something like tat. The food was yummy!



After dinner we went walking around town.
Look at the background, those were the only shops open at this time


So we sat down at some restaurant and bar for COFFEE! hehe weird!

We went back to the motel after that. It was really cold by 11 and we've got a long schedule for tomorrow too. So off to bed early.
