Off to New Zealand!

[Dave Davenport]

Our daughter and son in law are both working as kayak guides in Abel Tasman national park, they've been there over a year and won't be home 'till next year. We've just made a spur of the moment decision to go and see them.
Flying to Christchurch April 3rd and picking up a camper van, they're going to organise a 4 or 5 day kayak trip along the coast then we'll mooch about the South island for a bit, come back on the 21st.

We're going to have a massive party after you've gone. At your house.

You need to do it properly and go for three months. You can't really experience NZ to the fullest in less.

Have a great time!

No need to organise one, you'll just be able to join the one my son will probably have.

[QUOTE 2955877, member: 259"]Have you invited that councillor yet?[/quote]

I assume you mean the numpty who complained about the cycle training; He was just a local 'cyclists should ride in the gutter/have to use cycle paths/don't pay road tax' type. He phoned the council (who phoned my boss) but I don't think he was anything to do with them. Though it was in Merryoak (Southampton) so you never can tell.

Fantastic time had, managed to cram quite a lot into 16 days. Lovely country, pity it's so blinking far away!

I've always wanted to visit NZ! Any photos for us?

I only got to do the northern part of North Island back in 01 and would go back tomorrow if I had the funds just to complete the rest. Hope you enjoyed it?
