You are in for a treat. How much of Australia & N.Z. will you be seeing? Live each day....instead of counting the years. |

WOW you will certainly be covering a lot of ground & should get a good overview of both countries.
I wish you a wonderful trip.  Live each day....instead of counting the years. |

I have lived in NZ my whole life and truely count myself lucky to live here! However, I admit i traveled overseas before seeing any of the south island (i live in the north) but over the past few years I have made it my goal to see as much of my country as I can. I just returned from an amazing holiday in and around Queenstown. I have said it before and ill say it again, NZ truely is BEAUTIFUL. The landscapes are so contrasted that you can be sure you wont see the same scenes day after day. Queenstown is the place for adventure. If you do make it that far south be sure to experience a bungy jump.

We have something in common, I've hardly seen anything of Australia but I've travelled quite a bit overseas. I've never been any further south than Canberra and in 1986 I went to Uluru with my late grandmother. I know this sounds terrible but I've never had much desire to see my own country - not when there is a great big wide world to visit! Thou shalt not expect to find all things precisely as they were at home, for thou hast left home to find things different! |

I've always been of the opinion that you should explore your own country before going overseas, or at least as well as. I persuaded my hubby who was keen to go to Aussie years ago that he should first go to the South Island, where he'd never been. He loved it. I think people from the North Island don't realise what a different world it is down there! |

Like you I have only seen a little of Australia & nothing at all of the western states. We are waiting until we can no longer cope with the long plane trips then our holidays will be in our own country. Live each day....instead of counting the years. |

New Zealand is truly beautiful, here is a photo we took from the top of the mountain in Queenstown, South Island. ~Travel is the best form of education anyone can ever have~  queenstown.JPG (240 Kb, 35 downloads) |

It is a beautiful shot. New Zealand is very high on my very long list of places to go.
