Even more Falklands....and a bit of New Zealand too...

....missed this last week but thanks to Twitter it wasn't missed for long....

The Falklands have made yet another '"Top Destinations for 2012" list, this time Travelbite's top 10.

Sadly no Guyana in the list this time but New Zealand did make an appearance.  I for one can vouch for a trip to Hobbiton (near the town of Matamata on NZ's North Island), the actual set where the filming took place for for the much awaited "The Hobbit" film and also for the earlier "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.

If you're a Lord of the Rings fan, big or small, it's brilliant, won't fail to raise a smile for even the most reluctant visitor and given the right weather conditions and time of day, it might even feel just a little bit magical.
