 From the Botanical Gardens, we completed our last leg of the journey to the airport to have dinner at Burger King and last minute shopping at a hypermarket. Then we dropped off the car at the rental depot where transport was provided to the airport a mere 5 minutes drive away.
 
Our flight was on 13 November 2013 at 01.35 hrs. It was a redeye flight of about 10 hrs 40 mins to KLIA.
 
It had been an amazing and wonderful holiday in New Zealand. South Island was simply postcard picturesque beauty. The snow capped mountains, the ruggedness and remoteness of the country side  were breathtaking and simply awesome. The cold fresh air and crystal clear rivers were invigorating. The beauty was a sight to behold.
