Days 35 through 40
Not every day we spent in Sydney was jam-packed with activities. In fact, many of them were just downright relaxing. So we're listing all six days we spent in Sydney here in one post.

When you're in Sydney, it's somewhat obligatory to visit the Sydney Opera House, the Harbour Bridge, and The Rocks.
›We depart from New Zealand's South Island and arrive in a larger island further to the north.
If you throw a rock in New Zealand, there's a high likelihood you'll hit a sheep. However, if you don't hit a sheep, you'll probably hit a billboard advertising a Lord of the Rings tour. So we thought we should give one a try.
After a chilly night watching small penguins come back to their homes after a day fishing at sea, we explored Oamaru for a little while before heading off for Twizel.
A whole bunch of cool things happened today, so this is a pretty long retelling.
What time is it? It's Cookie Time! And time for a long drive.
You can't really visit Hanmer Springs without going to the Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools & Spa. So we did. But before that, we had some hiking to do.
We started the day with a (small) disaster and ended it very cold. But in-between all that, we did stuff.
We venture deeper into the South Island and realize it's going to get cold.
