Hmmm... I wasn't sure how fun it would be to visit Oz during your winter.

Thanks for the link. Saving money! Woot woot! Wow, found some cool packages. Lost World Caving and Abseiling Epic - Waitomo
and Dart River Jetboat and Canoe Funyak - Glenorchy.

Summer is pretty darn cool too! give us some pointers as to your interests, and the Kiwi crew will come up with some more sites!

As you know, during winter I like to snowboard. As for summer, I like hiking and swimming. I think it also might be cool to hike through the Bush (I know, it's in Oz) and visit some caves (if you have any). So, I'm a pretty "outdoorsy" guy. Something sporty and (maybe) extreme. I'd also like to visit the ocean and port towns and do something there. Aquariums are cool. So are zoos. I'm sure ya'll have some mighty fine ones.

Wow, I sure listed alot of "touristy" things... :o So I hear Wellington has a nice nightlife.

well if you want to go bush walking the blue mountains has fantastic walks...

and caving...

jenolan caves...

there is easy tours, and there is the adventure stuff...like the plughole which I did... which was about 2 hours, you abseil down into the cave...and crawl and slither through all the holes...

but they also have another tour called the mammoth that is a whole day adventure caving...which I'm yet to do...but sounds fun...

but you need to book ahead.

oh and beach is great here in summer...there are million of nice spots

I've heard that the bushes and caves are very moist in Australia
