There and Back Again

Well, I officially destroyed the whole point of this blog by not posting anything for three weeks. But in my defense, those three weeks were absolutely crazy.

Let's see...there was the midnight premiere of the Hobbit....college finals....my older brother's engagement...my annual 12-hour Lord of the Rings Marathon...and a little 2-week trip to New Zealand.

All in all, I packed a whole lot of wonderful in the last part of December.

And yes, New Zealand was incredible. I'll be adding lots of notes and pictures on my travel blog so I'll post a link here as soon as that's done. But some highlights include: Going on the world's highest canyon swing, tubing through a cave full of glowworms, Zorbing, and seeing the Shire. And that's just to name a few.

Traveling is one of my greatest passions. There's nothing I love more than exploring new places and seeing things half-way around the world that take my breath away. And New Zealand took my breath away at every turn. "Wonderful" is such an understatement here. It was an incredible journey and I miss it already.
