Go to New Zealand! (I meant to post this 2 yrs ago...)

.....silence.... ( the sort of silence you get telling your granny your gay)




I'll forgive you.

Well, I've got Australian citizenship as well so I'll have to ask for forgiveness twice

NZ is a great tourist destination, you can do as much or as little as you want of just about anything you can think of with less travelling than anywhere else in the world.

Exchange rate is pretty good too.

So have I, so we are still down to one.
I tell the wife we have to retire back home at Wanaka, that or when the zombies come. I'm working on the last idea by subjecting her to The Walking Dead, she'll come around......
She came around after she got sick of me spiking her Corona with Speights.
Anyway, being a Australasian isn't so bad, we win either way with sport.

Great thread and pics. Wanted to go to NZ before this and this thread has just backed it up for me. Hopefully in the next year i can make it over

Wanaka was a much nicer place , worked there for 4 years. Go back and I will tell you all the good places to see

Our last trip .... Wanaka is OK, once the ski season is over ....



Our last house in Chch (that no longer exists, post quakes)



The in-laws farm looking towards the Southern Alps

The in-laws farm looking towards the Southern Alps

Spectacular!

I spent 3 1/2 weeks driving around NZ in 2008; absolutely love the place.

We will go back to retire I suspect. We both miss NZ too much

A few more photos I found from a trip back in 2009 (we get back at least 2-3 times a year)

We need to close this thread, makes me want to go back to the MacKenzie Country to go shooting, or is it I just hate Christmas traffic......
