Well, nothing spotted so far.

Cool people though. I love admins who book you into ocean view room at the Hilton, too.

I'd check to see if you're not actually on a cruise ship, and somehow about to set sail for New Zealand instead of fly there. Mixups do happen in the travel industry.

Looks nice - springtime in the Southern ocean.

I’ve always wondered what happened to Old Zealand…….

Did the citizens migrate because of lack of Zeal?

”"Zealand" most commonly refers to Sjælland, Denmark's largest and most populous island, home to the capital, Copenhagen…”

“"Zealand" refers to a large Danish island (Sjælland), while "New Zealand" is a Pacific island nation named by Dutch explorers after the Dutch province of Zeeland, meaning "Sea-land"“
