To celebrate our 11 year anniversary Dom and I decided to go a a short weekend roadie to Riverton and the Catlins… We visited both places back in 2005 and wanted to see how things had changed… Like everything in NZ, a LOT had! However, it was all still beautiful – like Cornwall without the crowds as my Mum would say! Long story short, we had a blast, saw lots of wildlife, ate yummy food, played a few hundred games of s***head, took lots of cheesy photos, drove over 800 kms and celebrated the start of our 11th year together (my my doesn’t time fly)!!
Cheese time first…










Surat Bay - Sea Lion Colony and beautiful beach…






Riverton, when the sun came out…




After a yummy anniversary dinner the night before we returned for brekkie. Whilst eating a pod of 20-30 dolphins swam past, amazing!








Yellow-eyed penguins…


Possum (alive for once)…
