Wow, what an amazing journey at sea. Sounds like a lot of fun. I look forward to reading more about it. I spent three months in NZ years back, and LOVED the Picton area. Hope you get to mess about while there. Queen Charlotte Sound area is an amazing place to bop around in.
It's so nice to have you back posting once more. Have fun (like THAT'S not going to happen...) and looking forward to more seaward posts. Cheers
Too cool and thanks! Our first stop in NZ was Picton...the city of 5000 people :) It was raining/blowing that day so we ventured into town and that was it.
Normally the ship would go to Christchurch, but their dock is still down since that big earthquake they had.
