27 hours in a plane later, and Jake and I are safe and sound back home in Birmingham. We flew Emirates, watched a bunch of movies and TV shows on the way, had decent meals and surprisingly adequate legroom for economy class. In fact, compare that to my recent return home from foreign parts on another airline, and the service was absolutely superb.
We had an amazing time in New Zealand: saw a lot of people we really wanted to see; did a bunch of things we really wanted to do; and bought a lot of things only a tourist would spend money on. Filled an entire empty suitcase with gifts and bits and pieces that had been requested or seemed appropriate.
I’m absolutely wiped now – it’s early evening Birmingham time, but my brain is convinced I’ve been up for two days, and it’s now around 6am.
Really appreciate everyone’s hospitality while we were back. I’m now going to spend a few days unscrambling my brain.

That sounds like a wonderful experience. I personally hate flying, I find it so uncomfortable but you seem relaxed about it.
You made me want to visit New Zealand too ;)
