When we walked out of the theatres after seeing LOTR: Return of the King, I was saying to Eddie how cool it would be if the movie sets ( Minas Tirith for instance) could be converted into some sort of Middle-Earth theme park… Imagine the people rushing to visit and how much money this would bring to New Zealand tourism…
Apparently someone HAD been thinking along these lines. Look - Hobbiton Tours! (linked from chaosgeneration weblog).
While on the subject of LOTR, John sent this interesting article about Hobbits…

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
¡Feliz Navidad!OK, this is really the final blog before we leave (bright and early in the morning)
Time to go to bed… Good night!
