Bob's Vintage Tiger Moth flight... Wanaka, NZ














On our last day in Wanaka, Bob got the thrill of a lifetime. He went up with Peter (we rented our apt. from him) in his Tiger Moth). Wipe that smile off of your face Bob!

If you ever get to Wanaka you MUST do this flight and/or go in his other plane for a ride to Mt. Aspiring National Park like we did the day before. What a way to end our stay in New Zealand! We felt like two little kids again. Remember when everything about childhood was so exciting? Well, our flights reminded us of those wondrous days.
Oh, what a sensational feeling!

Go to Peter's website and learn more about his plane and his company.
www.classicflights.co.nz or www.learningtoflynz.com

We are in Queenstown right now and will fly to Auckland tomorrow for 2 days. We leave NZ April 2nd.

The blog will be back on when the next trip begins. I'll be going to China in July so stay tuned.

Blog, blog, blogging good-bye!
