Welcome to my New Zealand inspired Kblossoms jewelry blog! In March 2018, we spent 8 days in the South Island New Zealand which is their Fall. We rented a car and drove 1,500 miles throughout the island. We started in Christchurch and did a counter clockwise loop to Waipara Wineries, Hamner Springs, Greymouth, Franz Joseph, Wanaka, Queenstown, Te Anau, Milford Sound, Gore, Dunedin, Hampden, Mt Cook, Tekapo. We had the greatest outdoor adventure of our lives in this beautiful country. Kiwis were so nice to us, I think there are more sheep and cows than people in some places we drove through. The most exciting part of the trip was flying in a helicopter on top of Franz Joseph Glacier and hiking the blue ice formations, doing 360 spins in a jet boat in Hamner Springs and getting soaking wet up in personal to a gigantic waterfall on a cruise boat in Milford Sound. The most unforgettable experience was walking and having coffee with llamas in Hamner Springs. The most relaxing thing was soaking in the gorgeous hot springs of Hamner Springs and Tekapo Hot Springs for hours after hiking. The most unusual and unique experience was witnessing hundreds of glow worms in Te Anau caves; they look like sparkling star constellations in the night sky, a very romantic boat ride in darkness. Riding the luge and drinking from a cup made of ice at the Minus 5 Ice Bar in Queenstown was a fun experience too. We love New Zealand so much we want to come back to explore more of the outdoors! Above are the Kblossoms handmade Fall inspired jewelry that I made using precious stones like citrine and yellow chalcedony. Please visit my Etsy site here to see more www.kblossoms.etsy.com
