Hiya - I'm new here too! Back in UK (sadly) now after just travelling round NZ for a couple of months with my 8 yr old son. We had a ball and plan to return next year for NZ Part 2 (skiing is our interest - we come out in our summer break/NZ winter) but Oz will be our next trip after that!

Best wishes to all.

Kim, UK cheers

Hiya Pauline!

Thanks for the welcome!

I planned to tour North and South NZ Islands but got too waylaid by interesting things on North - so just spent 2 weeks on South - hence planned return trip next year to do it in 'reverse' i.e. fly in to South, ski, do stuff then fly out of North.

My son had a FAB time and can't wait to return.

We spent 4 days in Singapore on way out and then 8 days in Bali on way back which was VERY nice!!

Only just found this site.

Nice to meet you all - hope to make some friends!

Thanks.

Is this an Australian/NZ site - or a general site - bit confused?!

Found it by typing in 'make friends in NZ' in Google

Dont get me wrong - Australian friends would be great too!!! Would be nice to make some penpals - if you fancy keeping in touch wave

Gorgeous.... I love the Blue Mountains - only been once and visited Jenolan (not sure spelling) Caves - like vegemite the cooler weather puts a rose in every cheek laugh But beautiful you are very fortunate.

I am on the Sunshine Coast which is beautiful also - just the humidity in summer can be a bit taxing but that's part of living in Qld.

And yes we have had more than our share of rain always do on the coast - we don't have water restrictions here.... yet... unlike our inland neighbours which is never fair when they miss the good rains.

I am off to work tonight 10pm to 4am joy joy lol Third graveyard shift in a row and just want to sleep laugh

Enjoy rest of your evening Pauline!

Bon Appetite!

Stay safe
