I went back in 2006. My brother was student teaching in New Zealand, when he got done with his teaching I flew down and spent some time down there. We did see a lot of the country and a LOT of sites from the movie, those are just a couple that i picked to put up on here. We also visited Mt Victoria in Wellington, where they filmed a number of scenes from FoTR, like the scene where the hobbits hide under the tree roots and the nazgul gets off his horse and leans over them. We were lucky enough to catch the touring LOTR exhibit at the national museum (Te Papu) in wellington. We had seen this in the states once already, but they had the huge 20 foot mockup of Minas Tirith that did not make it to the states tour that was awesome to see, just wish we could have taken pictures. We took a plane ride out of Queenstown and saw a number of locations; the gorge that was the backdrop for the ford of bruinen, a mountain lake that was used for a number of scenes, a lot of the mountains that were used to make up the misty mountains, the plane ride even flew us along the same path that you see as the opening to the two towers, that was really neat. We landed in a field and hiked to the spot that they used for the rohirrim camp before they headed to the pelennor fields before flying back to the airport. The best part of the plane ride was that it was just the pilot, my brother and me, and as it turns out he used to fly a lot of the cast around to filming locations, so he just sat there and told us stories from the when the films were being made, lots of good stuff like who liked to fly, who refused to fly, who wanted to actually fly the plane. We drove up the mountain used for a lot of rohirrim scenes in Queenstown, the warg attack, the spot where aragorn fell off the cliff and a few more. And of course we went out to Edoras, which was just an amazing location.
Shahla if you want more details send me a PM and I will be glad to tell you all about it.

I'm about 10 minutes from there, near the University.

I wouldn't. Its not the best idea, safety-wise.
Someone insists on a pic, then download one from the net. How would they know?
I actually met my girlfriend over the internet, and took a huge risk in taking a bus up to Alberta, CA (I live in NC in the states) to meet her. I've never regretted it. Sure, there are some perverts, stalkers, etc. on the internet, but those horror stories are really few and far between. Only a small percentage of the total number of people on the internet... they just get more publicity.

Certainly no pervert, stalker, etc. ever went to a bar, college, party, library, grocery store, etc. Of course not. . . they all are on the Meneldor Boards!!!
