Nice!

I enjoyed the food in NZ, and found that there was quite a variety.
Did you see any deer farms, surrounded by super tall fences?

Yeah, there was one operation that was really impressive. They had red deer, cattle, and sheep grazing on rotation the grass looked so lush. I'm not sure I was able to get that in a frame... but I'll look.

I saw a number of Weta Workshop items around Wellington. Lil' Griff took a tour there during the semester. Smaug and the eagle(s) are in the airport. The soldiers are from a major WWI installation at Te Papa. They take their First World War seriously in NZ. There are monuments to the fallen everywhere you look. http://wetaworkshop.com/projects/ The scale of their work is amazing. Look at the website for a better idea of size.
