    Welcome to the forums wolfe. I don't blame you, I wouldn't want to sleep on the ground with all those dangerous bugs, spiders and snakes.

    Welcome Wolfe, what little I know of New Zealand's geography I got from LoTR. What beauty! Are the places in the film public lands?

    Ha ha. Well that's a good thing to know. NZ is a beautiful country from the pictures I've seen. I'd love to visit someday. I just wish the plane ride wasn't so incredibly long. One can always dream.
    If you have any video of your outings I'd love to see them.

    I find it hard just to use this thing let lone a video cam. I have been to the USA. so I know what you are talking about when ya say a long flight. and expensive as I flew into LA then went to. NC and then to finally got to where I was going lynchburg Virginia that was about a 30hr trip all up but the worst part about that was I was sick as a dog all the way over. and to make matters worse when we got out in the bush I got chiggers those things are the devil so I won't be back anytime soon LOL!!! as I am 65 and retired and can't afford it any. how I am not aloud to fly ant more because of health probs.
