Singapore to New Zealand

Singapore Day 4 17.01.14 

Finally checked out at 12 o'clock and left the luggage in hotel.  After breakfast in Swissbake took the MRT to city to see Raffles Hotel and the Cricket Ground.  We also went to Sands Shopping Centre again and had tea in a very nice tea shop over the canal.


We got to airport on time and there was only one well behaved baby on flight.

New Zealand Day 1 18.01.14

Arrived in Christchurch at about 10am and then tried to get into New Zealand!  They have strict rules about bio-hazards and after queuing through customs (long queue) we then had to declare all our bio hazards, walking shoes were inspected , remains of packet of biscuits (3) were declared (I should have put them on the form).  To check that we had told the truth it it was all x-rayed and if we had lied there was a instant $400 fine - we passed!

It was cloudy on the flight to Queenstown so didn't see much. Picked up car and got to our room opened the door to this view out of our window.


and it was all worth it.

NZ Day 2  Sunday January 19th

Queenstown is fabulous the views are tremendous with mountains all around the town and the lake. We didn't get up until late but went into town to have a look around.

and managed dinner on hotel terrace

Nice wine - bubbles of course.
