Before we started with a family, we decided to take that one trip that we'd be less likely to take once children are in the picture. After watching "The Making Of" from the Lord of the Rings series, we decided that we both would really like to visit New Zealand.

On December 16, 2006 we left LA for a 1-month trip to Australia, New Zealand and Fiji. We would fly from place to place in Australia, travel by motorcycle in New Zealand and kick back on Fiji. In preparation for the trip we got our motorcycle license in March and 4 days prior to departure we became certified open water divers (our first stop would be the Great Barrier Reef...).

Marieke called this trip the 2nd Honeymoon, while David referred to it as "The Last Hurrah". On the following pages you'll be able to read our travel diary and view our photos. It may seem like many, but hey, we narrowed it down from 3,000, so really, keep it in perspective.

Needless to say, we had an AMAZING time, but check it out for yourself. Enjoy!
