I went to Queenstown and Saigon Kingdom earlier in the year, i got the chilli and lemongrass chicken it was so good. Still praying for a NZ, Aus bubble so we can come over and enjoy the south island again, its so beautiful.
Such an awesome activity, considering it's similar price to other activities in queenstown it is a really unique alternative way to explore the region 😊👌
Wow guys thats a wonderful view up by the hills and seeing those mountains top! The walk up there could be tiring ! But the results you see if you love outdoors is well worth it! Queenstown South Island is awesome!!
Thank you guys! It's another really cool place we're visiting and even the drive to get there.. the one I was saying in our chat about how it was raining so much but there were waterfalls and then you taught me a new word I never knew of lolol trunk road 😂👍
Omg what a view while riding the horses!! We only get to ride around a circle for horse riding here lol!! The deers are soooo sooo cute!! Then there's a plane on the sky, looks like they're chasing after it haha!
I hope it's a big circle at least 😂🤣 they are totally chasing after that plane! It caught their attention and they all ran to it.. was such perfect timing that we were able to capture it on camera! 😍🦌
I think the email country diverse nature thing is such a plus. It is so apparent in South island though, just drive a few hours in any direction and the landscape can change so much 🌿😍
So much space between passengers (0:52)! That's awesome. That was not our experience at all. So glad you guys were able to get away and great choice. Queenstown is one of the places we want to visit the most over there. Famous horses too?! Beautiful area to go horseback riding. Family run businesses like that are the best.
Nice shots for the start of the vid! Wow you guys met some celebrities lol. wow beautiful ride and in such nice scenery! The deers running on the hill was a great moment to capture! Bye bye buster and mr white. whoa Yen you hardly slept! A M A Z I N G views at the top! Congrats on your effort making it to the top! Ooooo yeah pete going the XL pho! True man size haha. Looking forward to next one!
The rock stacking seems to be a thing. Definitely, worth the hike, the view is insane!!! (I think I said that in every of your video hahaha!!) Much needed re-fuel!! Chicken and beef pho - aaah I miss Vietnamese food! Always nice to pair it with springrolls, awh yummy crunch!
The horse riding experience is so great! Wowww even the horse is famous from the movies. Awesome! I don’t remember doing a horse riding before but definitely will put the activity on the bucket list for sure. Thanks for sharing guys!
Ooooo a celebrity horse lol, the stable looks really amazing. Maria loves horse riding, she was doing it since she was young. I on the other hand had a bad experience.
Wow that view from the plane was incredible! Also LOL I have the same car that you guys rented, except here it's called a Prius C! I've never heard it called an Aqua before 😂
Such an amazing view right! Can't get sick of that view 😍 Aqua is just a different model hahah not a diff name for Prius 😄 They're both hybrid cars tho. I believe Aqua is a bit cheaper than Prius though?
The elk are gorgeous. The view between locations was stunning. That's interesting to know you can't run a drone in Queenstown. Those little rock towers. It reminds Butters of what they call "Inukshuks".. they are statues that are made of rock by indigenous typically used as stone landmarks that the peoples of the Arctic use. That view from your hike!! WOW... that is something we would definitely enjoy. Love you guys went for Vietnamese food. That place looks beautiful, and the food looks even more delicious. Can't believe Peter got the Extra Large Pho!! LOLOL Thanks for taking us with you and love you guys to the moon!
The views are amazing. I would probably just sleep there, cause I don't think I would have the energy to go back down lol... And a great way to finish it all with food. I would definitely do the extra-large bowl. Thank you for not making me hungry till the end of the video, now I can go eat lol.
😂 the down hill is a lot better than the constant incline that you'll experience in this climb. My gosh even after low amounts of sleep it really was a bit of a struggle. But would we do it again? 💯
Oh wait, what a view from the flight! Guys it’s just good to see all the airport scenes and traveling vibes, we miss backpacking era… 😭 Wow, look at the wide farm land! You guys are good at riding a horse. I (HK) would be terrified to be on the horse. I love when Jordi supporting and kind of pushing my back when hiking. (mostly it’s to pressure me to go faster…but still😅) And nice wrap up with the yummy noodle soup! It seems like an amazing first day, guys. Thanks for sharing. We felt like traveling the road with you guys. 👍
😁 🐎 I think it might be scary because horses are so big but then when you get on the fun outweighs the fear 👌 you guys gotta try it sometime. Makes the scenery you're surrounded by even more beautiful.
fab u lous darlings , yes i must do the south island next visit, must say that beef pho looked great too , looking forward for next vid already ....... take care now
You definitely need to sleep more and have a decent meal to do that hike. At least we do. Haha The views are so worth it though. That Vietnamese restaurant is so lovely. Noodles are always the way to go after a long day.
Beautiful views from your horse riding..will go next time in Queenstown. We love Queenstown, we also rented a boat for a cruise of Lake Wakatipu, also awesome activity and not expensive
Queenstown is in our bucket list! Even the airport has already got amazing view, whoa you guys met famous horses there, what happen to anybody who've never ride horses before (like us)? would be quite nervous to ride on our own haha
I don't think you need any experience to ride a horse. The ones at moonlight stables are really friendly and well behaved too. We did have a guide with us the whole time too. Highly recommended if you go to queenstown 😁👌
Hey Peter and Yen! That's so awesome you're going to take a domestic flight. You guys are going to take us to some amazing places. What a stunning view from the airplane. That's cool you're going horseback riding. So awesome to see Fred who was in Lord of the Rings! That's cool you can freely ride your horses there, aren't guide led. $120/person isn't bad, for such an awesome experience.
I think $120 nzd is a great deal considering you're in queenstown. Plus where else will you see lord of the rings horses 🐎 😁 might be domestic but it's still overseas 😂
Amazing video!!! We JUST moved to Queenstown area a few days ago, made a video about our journey down (we drove, but your flight seemed so quick and worth it!!!), and we did this walk today! You captured it all beautifully! Just subbed, can’t wait to see more!
Oh that's wonderful! Congrats on moving to Queenstown. It's such a beautiful place with so much to do! Yea it's a great flight from Auckland to Queenstown.. the views are always insanely gorgeous when you're coming in to land 😍 That walk up Queenstown Hill is great ay? There's lots of other ones too but it's def very beautiful from that summit 🙂 Thanks for subscribing! Have an awesome weekend 🙂
Beautiful countryside 🤩 So cool that you were able to see deer as well. We were in Queenstown about 10 years ago and we loved how spectacular the scenery is around there. Wish we'd done that walk up Queenstown Hill - sounds tough but worth it!
😁 queenstown hill is 100% worth the effort. Didn't expect to be treated to such a magnificent view of the area. The deer 🦌 and elk were awesome. We were lucky a plane flew by and all the deer decided to chase it 😂
Omg that Saigon Kingdom is so familiar. We remember eating at the restaurant on the last day when we went to Queenstown. The food was so good! It definitely hit the spot. We went there with super empty stomach too hahaha 😂
P&Y youve done it again! Awesome vid showcasing our beautiful country. Ive jst been from the south island - flew to chch, drove up to Kaikoura...beautiful is all i can say. Next will be the Hawkes Bay in a few months cos you guys have inspired me to see NZ.
Hey Jessica 🙂👋 thanks so much for the kind words! That sounds like an awesome trip. We'd like to go to Kaikoura too.. another time for sure 👍 did you see any whales or dolphins? Hope you have an amazing time in Hawkes Bay too! Let us know what adventures you get up to 😁
Definetly will do. We booked whale watching on the 2nd to last day of the trip & it was cancelled due to lack of visibility/extreme fog. Our session was at 1pm & it was a sunny warm day but surprisingly the visibility was def low! It was amazing to see, never seen anything like it before. Thanks guys, love your content & always sending a link to my mates! 😊
Wow this is amazing! Will be studying in New Zealand next year as an international student, so these tips are very great in terms of travelling around the country. 💪🏻
Awesome first day guys. How good was that weather! We did that walk also last time we were down there (sat on the same rock as you to take in the view 😀) and loved it.
😂 that rock is the perfect spot to soak in everything going on around you. Such an amazing spot. We were like as soon as we can see a few days of sun in the forecast we're doing it. Lucky it held out for most of the trip. BTW we are back in Auckland if you guys are free?
In queenstown u dont need to hunt for the best house for the view... its everywhere u go.... just surrounded where ever u go... such a beautiful part of Otago New Zealand
The views coming into Queenstown are so stunning 🤩 Famous horses! Awesome! Ex on the beach and Air nz safety haha 😆 Aww the horses are so cute! That looks so fun! Must’ve been hard to film while riding? 😅 That place looks like a movie setting. Beautiful views! Seems worth the hike! Yummy Pho 😋.
They're just amazing ay? Really love that view flying in! I was so lucky had the 2 seats next to me free so had the whole row to myself 😍 it was hard to film while riding lol.. had to use our GoPro which meant it just wasn't as close up as we would've liked but got some awesome shots still like when the deer chased the plane! ✈️🦌🦌🦌😍
@@PeterandYen awesome. Enjoy your time down here. Make sure you stop by the Blue Pools on your way to the West Coast. The roaring Billy will impress you with the amount of prayer rocks. Have fun.
Queenstown is amazing. Its the one place in the world I wish I can return too. I only scratched thr surface the first time i went but id love to try all the things you guys have done :)
So jealous you guys went to Queenstown 😍😍 We would love to visit back again next time especially during summer time. How good was that feeling to be able to fly again guys!
7:18 A cairn is a man-made pile (or stack) of stones. Often seen as tramping markers above the tree line where snow or rocky areas makes it difficult to see the track. I remember doing activities in and around Queenstown that soon gobbled through my travel budget. It's expensive! Have prices fallen now that they can only cater to the domestic market?
Thought he looked like Fred 🐴😉... very beautiful and of course, the best part is always to see what kind of Asian food you guys find in your travels... 🍜 looked tasty...but no fresh basil or sprouts? 😢 Great vid👍👍 🏔
😅 yeah that's the thing with vietnamese food here in New Zealand, you won't find the platter of fresh herbs to accompany your noodle bowl. Unfortunately due to the climate herbs 🌿 are pretty expensive here in New Zealand you do normally get some sprouts in Auckland though 😁
Awesome vlog! I loved the interactions you two had with the horses and your ride. The wildlife, scenery and food were amazing! With your vlogs so far in NZ, if we return, we will need to stay like for a whole month! I know the scenery from your next few vlogs are going to be spectacular! I am curious why Yen only had less than three hours of sleep before your flight (I remember flying on JetStar in Australia).... which one of you researches places to visit and eat..... thanks for traveling and posting (scheduled regularly).
Yo Ray, Peter here I'm usually the planner for our days. I try and make sure they aren't over planned and so we have enough room for flexibility during a day if we enjoy something a lot and want to stay longer. We had to wake up around 5am for the early flight plus to allow time for vlogging at the airport and since we're late sleepers yen only got a couple of hours of 💤 😅 we are kinda used to it now but it did make that walk a lot tougher 😂 1 month only? We need to try harder hahaha
😂👌 its a very distracting part of New Zealand especially if you're driving want to look up and all over the place at all the cool things you're driving past
I went to Queenstown and Saigon Kingdom earlier in the year, i got the chilli and lemongrass chicken it was so good. Still praying for a NZ, Aus bubble so we can come over and enjoy the south island again, its so beautiful.
Mmmmmm chili lemongrass chicken sounds awesome. Dang now craving vietnamese for dinner 🍽 😋
The sceneries is spectacular, the mountains the greeneries 😳
Beautiful huh 😍
Horse riding looks very exciting too...😘
So much fun 🐎 🐴 🎠 🏇
Wow that restaurant is GORGEOUS! Mmm nothing like a big bowl of hot pho, so comforting 😋
Definitely the perfect meal we needed after a full on day 😋
Aww y'all are so cute riding the horses!! And all the animals are super adorable too!!!
🐎🦌 they're magnificent creatures!
So exciting...love queenstown esp for golf. So beautiful 😍 💖
One day we'll play golf ⛳ too 😊
Queenstown is truly a breath of fresh air - def coming back soon
You think sometimes how clean can air be.... then you go south island and it's like oooooo
I look forward every week to see your next film. Well done
Thank you for tuning in each week Paul! 😁 We're really happy to hear you enjoy our videos so much ❤️ 4 more to go from South Island 🙂👍
Love Horse-Riding - great value for 1.5 hours - the scenery is stunning !!
Such an awesome activity, considering it's similar price to other activities in queenstown it is a really unique alternative way to explore the region 😊👌
$120 for 90 minutes. That's $1.33/ minute. Hmmm...
9-day trip!!! Sounds Awesome!
😁😍👍
What an amazing horse trekking experience!
Totally, couldn't think of a more perfect place to do horse back riding. Highly recommend it 👌
Wow guys thats a wonderful view up by the hills and seeing those mountains top! The walk up there could be tiring ! But the results you see if you love outdoors is well worth it! Queenstown South Island is awesome!!
Gorgeous place ay! Definitely rewarding when you get to the summit for those incredible views 🙂
Such a fancy looking spot! Peter and his favorite cuisine of course rocking with the XL. Love that five spice
Hahahaha bigger is always better 😂
nice horses there nice walk uphill but great views and now the food looks very tasty
*we watch the whole video👍Au 👍we give you a like too*
It's an awesome place for sure, from as soon as you touch down 👍
Those mountains look beautiful from that above view
Amazinginess is the only word to describe it 😊✌
what beautiful scenery! excited to see 1/5
😁 totally! South island 🏝 is incredible. 4 more videos of stunning scenery on its way 👌
Man, you guys get around! Love the fact that this travel blog is 1 of 5 😃
😁 back in Auckland now but can tell ya there are 4 more videos of really beautiful New Zealand scenery 🇳🇿
@@PeterandYen Yuss!!
Peter rocking that jockey look!
🐎 🐴 🏇
We sure are lucky to have such a beautiful country ❤️
💯 blessed New Zealand 🇳🇿 ❤🥰
Amazing journeys and destinations! Thanks so much for sharing!
Glad you enjoyed it! We've made a couple of videos from Queenstown now. Amazing place 🥰
Digging the intro and nice to see you guys back in the air again!
Thanks man 😁🤙 did something a lil different on this one
Yay! You are finally in the South Island. Looking forward to your upcoming videos. Have a great stay in the south :)
😁 had the best 9 days! We are already thinking about coming back early December. See how everything goes 🤔😁 hope you enjoy the series May ❤
Omg stunningggg
Woohoo 🙌 Queenstown 😁❤
Love to watch those videos and remember my travels trough NZ back in 2k17 / 18 . Greetings from Germany
Thanks for watching and glad we were able to bring back some happy memories 😊👍
The price is really good to be able to explore such an open land. An amazing experience indeed
Think it's great value 👌
Can't wait for the next vlog!!
Thank you guys! It's another really cool place we're visiting and even the drive to get there.. the one I was saying in our chat about how it was raining so much but there were waterfalls and then you taught me a new word I never knew of lolol trunk road 😂👍
New Zealand release island is so beautiful, I like horses
Very beautiful! 🙂💕🐎
Omg what a view while riding the horses!! We only get to ride around a circle for horse riding here lol!! The deers are soooo sooo cute!! Then there's a plane on the sky, looks like they're chasing after it haha!
I hope it's a big circle at least 😂🤣 they are totally chasing after that plane! It caught their attention and they all ran to it.. was such perfect timing that we were able to capture it on camera! 😍🦌
What a picturesque place! 😍. Those horses were sweet, good natured, luckily! NZ is full of natural beauty for such a small country.
I think the email country diverse nature thing is such a plus. It is so apparent in South island though, just drive a few hours in any direction and the landscape can change so much 🌿😍
I’ve always wanted to do Queenstown. My kids would love it all!
Add it to your NZ bucket list Tony 😁👍🇳🇿 it's an awesome place!
have an amazing time! Can't wait to see South Island and visit once it's safe/allowed. Living vicariously through these vlogs for now.
😁 hoping that vaccine will actually be ready end of this month 🤞 think the world needs some good news to finish off a rough 2020
So much space between passengers (0:52)! That's awesome. That was not our experience at all. So glad you guys were able to get away and great choice. Queenstown is one of the places we want to visit the most over there. Famous horses too?! Beautiful area to go horseback riding. Family run businesses like that are the best.
Hahaha that was just lucky Yen got a seat with no people next to her. Horse 🐎 riding through queenstown was just a magical experience ❤
And not everyone is wearing masks so it's not compulsory when flying then?
Not anymore as we're back to level 1. It's compulsory on any public transport on higher levels though.
Great work guys
Thanks mate, 4 more videos coming up from our south island trip 😁
I miss airports and taking flights! 😭 Omg what a view from the plane!!! The horses are so cute!! In the LOTR??? What a star!!! 😍😍😍
Ikr!! I love that view from the plane 😍😍 never ceases to amaze us with how dramatic it looks 😍 haha yes a bunch of celebrity horses there 🤣🐎🐴
Nice shots for the start of the vid! Wow you guys met some celebrities lol. wow beautiful ride and in such nice scenery! The deers running on the hill was a great moment to capture! Bye bye buster and mr white. whoa Yen you hardly slept! A M A Z I N G views at the top! Congrats on your effort making it to the top! Ooooo yeah pete going the XL pho! True man size haha. Looking forward to next one!
😁🤙 South island is mean, so many awesome spots to check out 👌 y'all should check it out sometime maybe if there's a travel bubble 😁
Hi guys ,love your vids ,you guys seem pretty cool ,Queenstown has some of the most spectacular scenery as well the South lsland
Thanks NZ Falcon glad you're enjoying our videos. South island in general is spectacular 👌
I am loving all your NZ vlogs! :) South Island is so beautiful!
South island 🏝 is an amazing place for sure looking forward to going again sometime in summer hopefully 🤞
The rock stacking seems to be a thing. Definitely, worth the hike, the view is insane!!! (I think I said that in every of your video hahaha!!) Much needed re-fuel!! Chicken and beef pho - aaah I miss Vietnamese food! Always nice to pair it with springrolls, awh yummy crunch!
Yea! There were soo many of them of all sizes too! Are there any good Vietnamese restaurants near you guys? 🙂
Groovy vibes to u always friends 👍🏻
Cheers guys groovy vibes back to you 😎
These 2 at it again! ❤✌💯
Thanks 007 😁👌👌🖐️✌️❤️
Cool video I'm from NZ to from Auckland
Thank you, we're from Auckland too 👌😁
Thanks for making videos about NZ. I surely miss this beautiful country.
No worries, yen n I always enjoy exploring our home country. Hope when the world settles a bit you can come back and visit 👍
We love New Zealand 🇳🇿!! Your guys videos are so well done 👍
Thanks guys! We appreciate the kind words 🙂💕
The horse riding experience is so great! Wowww even the horse is famous from the movies. Awesome!
I don’t remember doing a horse riding before but definitely will put the activity on the bucket list for sure. Thanks for sharing guys!
👍 something to look forward to when you guys come back to queenstown
Ooooo a celebrity horse lol, the stable looks really amazing. Maria loves horse riding, she was doing it since she was young. I on the other hand had a bad experience.
😂 lieles! What happened? Do tell 😁
@@PeterandYen her name was lunatica, we were in Mexico.. i think you can imagine the rest hahaha
Cant wait for milford sound, when we went it rained hard
Only a few nights 🌙 sleep 💤 away
Wow that view from the plane was incredible! Also LOL I have the same car that you guys rented, except here it's called a Prius C! I've never heard it called an Aqua before 😂
Such an amazing view right! Can't get sick of that view 😍 Aqua is just a different model hahah not a diff name for Prius 😄 They're both hybrid cars tho. I believe Aqua is a bit cheaper than Prius though?
@@PeterandYen LOL nooo it legit is a Prius C which is a smaller version of a Prius. When I look up Toyota Aqua it literally says Prius C 😂
What the heck! That's so random hahaha 🤣 must be their marketing decided to rebrand or something confusing all us normal folk 😂
The elk are gorgeous. The view between locations was stunning. That's interesting to know you can't run a drone in Queenstown. Those little rock towers. It reminds Butters of what they call "Inukshuks".. they are statues that are made of rock by indigenous typically used as stone landmarks that the peoples of the Arctic use. That view from your hike!! WOW... that is something we would definitely enjoy. Love you guys went for Vietnamese food. That place looks beautiful, and the food looks even more delicious. Can't believe Peter got the Extra Large Pho!! LOLOL Thanks for taking us with you and love you guys to the moon!
After such a long day the extra large pho was a must 😋 yen really enjoyed seeing the elk too, they are very magnificent animals ❤
You guys are so amazing..👍🏻👍🏻 the food looked so great.. and make me hungry😂😂
Aw thank you Fitri 😁💕 Hope you found yourself some delicious food to curb the hunger 🙂👌
Enjoyed this video a lot, you guys! :) Can't wait for the December holidays as the fam and I also fly to the South Island for an adventure!
Thank you Naomi, glad you enjoyed the video. Ooo December holidays are always a great time to explore the South island 🏝 😍 just 1 more month away 😀
Tons of memories back when I was watching this video! Love your Channel guys! Cheers from Canada 😁
Thanks Javier 😁👍👋 Glad you enjoyed this video and it could bring back some good memories for you ✌️

Peter being the wind beneath Yen’s wings 😂😂
😂 no really though sometimes she needs a 500m push 😂
Omg queentown is so beautiful love the video guys
It's a real gem 💎 of New Zealand 🇳🇿 thanks Michael glad you enjoyed the vid 👍✌
You definitely need to sleep more and have a decent meal to do that hike. At least we do. Haha The views are so worth it though. That Vietnamese restaurant is so lovely. Noodles are always the way to go after a long day.
Hahahaha sleep or no sleep we're doing it 😂👍
Beautiful views from your horse riding..will go next time in Queenstown. We love Queenstown, we also rented a boat for a cruise of Lake Wakatipu, also awesome activity and not expensive
Definitely try out the horse riding if you get the chance Mandy 🙂👍🐎 such a great experience! Cruising Lake Wakatipu must've been amazing 😍
*Queenstown is the best!! Can't wait to visit it again. And to eat the ferg burger mouahahaha*
Hahaha yes! Fergburger is delicious, but that evening yen needed her warm soup noodles 🍜 hahaha 😋
Amazing place i will visit the city next month
Have an awesome time! Have you been before? 🙂
@@PeterandYen i haven't been there, it will be the first time I visit New Zealand and Queenstown will be one of places i will visit.

We did horse riding at Walter Peak in Queenstown it was beautiful experience.
😁✌ horse 🐎 riding in New Zealand is a lot of fun

😂 hard to beat a good noodle 🍜 soup on an empty stomach huh. That XL got destroyed pretty quickly 😂
Idk how y’all know all the good view spots!!!! And yass a video ain’t complete without noodles!!!!! That pho 🤤
😂 it's not too hard in New Zealand, cause there aren't many famous view spots around it makes research quite easy.
P&Y youve done it again! Awesome vid showcasing our beautiful country. Ive jst been from the south island - flew to chch, drove up to Kaikoura...beautiful is all i can say. Next will be the Hawkes Bay in a few months cos you guys have inspired me to see NZ.

Hi! Love your videos.
Can you recommed a place to stay in Queenstown, from your experience?
Thanks
Welcome to the south island. We used to live in Auckland but living down here now. Central otago is the place to live.
😁🤙 thank you, yeah agree central Otago is an amazing place for sure 👍
@@PeterandYen awesome. Enjoy your time down here. Make sure you stop by the Blue Pools on your way to the West Coast. The roaring Billy will impress you with the amount of prayer rocks. Have fun.
Queenstown is amazing. Its the one place in the world I wish I can return too. I only scratched thr surface the first time i went but id love to try all the things you guys have done :)
😁 queenstown is one of those places where there are so many diverse things to do, you can get fomo from not staying there long enough 😅
So jealous you guys went to Queenstown 😍😍
We would love to visit back again next time especially during summer time.
How good was that feeling to be able to fly again guys!
Hahaha yeah it was great being able to get in a plane and go over seas even if we are still in New Zealand 😂
I loved New Zealand. It's hard to leave Queenstown.
😊 queenstown is a gem 💎 of a town in New Zealand 🇳🇿
Cool, hope to ride on a horse one day.
😊🤙🐎
7:18 A cairn is a man-made pile (or stack) of stones. Often seen as tramping markers above the tree line where snow or rocky areas makes it difficult to see the track. I remember doing activities in and around Queenstown that soon gobbled through my travel budget. It's expensive! Have prices fallen now that they can only cater to the domestic market?
Thanks for the fact Pete! 🙂👍 Yea it's expensive and even now generally about the same! A few specials here and there but not much change in costs.
Challenging hike but that view though!
Wow is all I can say for this view. Really quite surprised how much of the area you could see from the top and how grand it was 😍
Lord of the ring horse! :D air new zeland video! some famous horses there!
Celebrity horses 😆👍🐎
Thought he looked like Fred 🐴😉... very beautiful and of course, the best part is always to see what kind of Asian food you guys find in your travels... 🍜 looked tasty...but no fresh basil or sprouts? 😢 Great vid👍👍 🏔
😅 yeah that's the thing with vietnamese food here in New Zealand, you won't find the platter of fresh herbs to accompany your noodle bowl. Unfortunately due to the climate herbs 🌿 are pretty expensive here in New Zealand you do normally get some sprouts in Auckland though 😁
LOVE QUEENSTOWN you should try the luge
We've done the luge in Rotorua before but yeah actually next time we're in queenstown we'll have to try it there too 😉
Hi guys..
Like to suggest do a southland trip specially in bluff & Invercargill
We couldn't fit it in this trip but we'll definitely go there on another visit 🤞
wow
Yes push yen forward! Climb cling haha..Haha when i climb helmi is behind me dodging the sun cause im tall 😂
😂 helmi is the wind beneath your wings
Awesome vlog! I loved the interactions you two had with the horses and your ride. The wildlife, scenery and food were amazing! With your vlogs so far in NZ, if we return, we will need to stay like for a whole month! I know the scenery from your next few vlogs are going to be spectacular! I am curious why Yen only had less than three hours of sleep before your flight (I remember flying on JetStar in Australia).... which one of you researches places to visit and eat..... thanks for traveling and posting (scheduled regularly).
Yo Ray, Peter here I'm usually the planner for our days. I try and make sure they aren't over planned and so we have enough room for flexibility during a day if we enjoy something a lot and want to stay longer. We had to wake up around 5am for the early flight plus to allow time for vlogging at the airport and since we're late sleepers yen only got a couple of hours of 💤 😅 we are kinda used to it now but it did make that walk a lot tougher 😂 1 month only? We need to try harder hahaha
So jelly omg this trip looked like a dream I was so distracted with all the beauty I wasn’t blowing up the comments lmbo
😂👌 its a very distracting part of New Zealand especially if you're driving want to look up and all over the place at all the cool things you're driving past
Refill at a vietnamese place - and im actuallly in a vietnamese restaurant eating dry egg noodle with crispy chicken lol 😂
😂👍👌
Peter you might need to come and give Maria a hand with pushing me up hills😂😂😂
😂😂😂 poor Maria
hahahahaah Peter with the straw in his mouth. You are a real cowboy now lol
I had old Town road playing in my mind so much 😂 had to focus on not singing
