A newlywed Auckland couple who were stranded in the Falkland Islands for four months are almost home, thanks to a lift from a fishing vessel.
At the beginning of March, Feeonaa and Neville Clifton married after 25 years together and left for their honeymoon with plans to head on to South America, but their travel options dried up when international borders started closing.
"From the time we started our honeymoon it was only a matter of two weeks before the cases in Europe starting flying out the window and it just escalated from there and we had to stay. We got stuck!" Feeonaa said.
