Rivendell and a long drive

This morning we got up early and packed up. Then we headed over to find the filming sites. There were boards there to show where things were and what they did- there isn't much left though. This photo of Sam pretending to be Legolas, as this is where the press photos of Orlando Bloom were taken.
Then we began to drive up slowly through the mountains and along the coast to the Tongariro National Park, where we are camping tonight. It was a very pretty drive.
