A pair of hobbits

oh my word are we really going here!? Squeal!


I'm very excited this week. After sweet-talking/forcing our respective places of employment into giving us three solid weeks off, we've booked our honeymoon flight tickets. We are officially going to New Zealand!

I can't quite believe it, it's somewhere we've both always dreamed of going. And even more exciting, we plan to do it in a camper van! With so many things to see and do, it really is the only way to explore. It's gonna be fab.

Now, as my husband-to-be is a huge 'Lord of The Rings - The Movie' fan, I am anticipating much hobbit related high jinks and japery during are honeymooning. (He's already added hobbit feet to our online wedding list.) But by complete coincidence (or is it Paul??) it turns out Peter Jackson will be over in New Zealand filming his new movie The Hobbit while we are there.

My fiance has already joked about getting some work as extras or trying to wangle our way into the background of a scene. Not sure our camper van will fit in with Mr Jackson's vision of Middle Earth though. But hey, if we can get Bilbo Baggins' autograph, then we will certainly try.
