Aahhh, Ngaire. Thanks so much for your posts. As you know, John and I had the most wonderful land trip through New Zealand a couple of years ago, and you are making me want to go back big time! The country has so much to see, unbelievably gorgeous scenery, and such nice people.

By any chance was the five-room B&B you saw on a farm outside Wanaka the River Run Lodge? That's where we stayed, and it was a magical spot surrounded by the most spectacular scenery. Absolutely beautiful, great food, and a very nice couple as the innkeepers.
