I’m chilling out in my hometown for a while. It’s easy to take home for granted, after all I spent the first 22 years of my life here before venturing off to bigger and better places. But the truth is, Chrstchurch is one of the best basis to plant yourself in if you want to explore more of New Zealand – which is exactly what I’m planning to do. Tomorrow I head up to Auckland and then I’m off to Mount Maunganui to enjoy some sun, surf and sand before summer fades into the distance.
This Sunday I bundled up warm and headed to the Chinese Lantern Festival. I still have a child-like fondness for anything that glows or sparkles. This was also the perfect excuse to get back into using my camera, because since it was stolen I’ve lost my groove.
Where have you seen the best lanterns before? I thought these were pretty awesome!
These photos are beautiful 🙂 It looks like an incredible festival to have been at!
Wow, the lanterns looks beautiful! Great Photos!
