Here’s the last bit of New Zealand trip documentation—a bunch of random video clips we took along the way!
Spoiler alert: How adorable are those ducklings? Our last morning in NZ we sadly packed up our things and prepared to leave Lake Tekapo and head home. When we opened the campervan door we found a row of fuzzy ducklings there to see us off. They were so friendly (like everyone we met in New Zealand) and practically climbed up into our hands. I thought about tucking one into my carry-on, but sneaking a kidnapped duckling through customs would probably be tricky.
