The Vacation and Adrenaline Junkie's paradise.  Even when it's cloudy it's beautiful.  The skiers and snowboards dream.  If you are seeking thrills, this is your base camp for New Zealand, best of the best.  It has everything from great lakes to the snowy mountains.  It is easy to see why people love it here.  

The Aspen of New Zealand.  Well it might not have all the movie star stuff, but it sure has everything else.

And we are off to Australia
