Our readers’ vacation adventures have taken them from Antarctica to Old Montreal and everywhere in between. Today, a pair of South Bay readers are sharing their recent experiences in New Zealand — no hobbit sightings, but plenty of gorgeous sights.
Wish You Were Here
NEW ZEALAND: San Jose reader Thuy Nguyen, left, and Santa Clara resident Susan Lacy took a 14-day Viking cruise of Australia and New Zealand in January. Among the excursions, “we visited Mount Sunday in New Zealand where ‘The Lord of The Rings’ was filmed,” Thuy says. If you know your Tolkien cinematic lore, Mount Sunday was the setting for Edoras, the capital city of Rohan.
TRAVEL TIPS: “The seasons there are opposite of ours, so if you go, pack accordingly and enjoy. Oh, in both Australia and New Zealand, people drive on the left side of the road.”
