okay, i know, i suck. i would say i've been busy, but i haven't really been. just neglectful.
soooo SOUTH ISLAND EXTRAVAGANZA!
this is me at the southern most point of the south island, Slope Point. i am hiding behind that tank to escape the gale force winds. i literally laid down into the wind and it held me up. that was crazy. i have also never been that close to antarctica.
this is liam, one of my travel buddies. he's from new york.
this is me being contemplative and new zealand being beautiful. both of us just doin our thang.
this is me in queenstown, which is a particularly beautiful part of new zealand. this was on ourdrive up the hill to the slopes.
once we got up to the slopes, we got to play in the snow. this is my snow man. we did not get to ski. that's alright. also, no, i have not cut my bangs since i have arrived.
this is me on one of the super round boulders on this beach. these boulders are on the front of my "rough guide to new zealand" book. they are cool looking.
see how cool they look??
this is in penguin country. stay tuned for a fun surprise.
surprise! penguin!
we fed these ducks at the dunedin botanical gardens
dunedin also happens to be home to baldwin street, the....
the steepest street in the world! ta da! 19 degrees, baby!
nugget point, absolutely beautiful!
new zealand also has rain forests.
milford sound is one of the natural wonders of the world.
it is truly a magical place.
me at milford!
thats queenstown in the left corner, quite a place for a town! my friend aaron dolan took this picture. also, liam mccartney took the top photo.
i hope you liked the snapshots of my trip, it was wonderful! i did chicken out of bungy jumping though, if you're wondering. oh well. also, i will be coming home to texas in january now, rather than july. didnt get my working visa or the classes i need, so i will see you all in the winter!

Maggie, I just want you to know that every time I see a new post from you in my Google Reader, I always read it before anything else. :)
I'm glad that you're having an awesome time, and that you take cool pictures.
Your photos are stunning, Maggie. Thanks for sharing them with us all back here. My favorites are definitely Milford Sound, Nugget Point, the rainforest, the little pink-footed penguin, and YOU.
did you take that picture of milford sound? also world's steepest street is awesome and that picture of you with snow is awesome too.
