Just a little so far. And a bit of information. Nieuw Zealand gives home to 4 million people. From which 3 million live on the north island. So there are a lot more people. Nieuw Zealand also gives home to 50 million sheep. (!!) Which mostly live on the South island. My impression of north island is loads of villages and a few citys. But also a lot of land where nobody lives. A lot of green hills. And a lot is cultivated land. The south should be a bit more rougher and mother nature in it's true form. So i'm curious. What brought New Zealand me so far? A skydive with video. Which was a live time experience. And something I wasn't planned to do. But I have to say it was awfully good. And offcourse my Black and White water rafting. Which was totally different. One was mostly in a boat down a river filled with rocks. The other one contained a lot of different extreme sports. And I had my first taste of Maori culture. Which was exciting. And I hope more will follow. That was a short overview of the north.

mark wants too know and if you are in the neighbourhood maybe you can take some pictures
Wow! That sounds awefully good you know! Loads of adventures listed on this site, actually. Might even be some setting for Bassie & Adriaan... ;-) They always have these adventures in strange countries with loads of action-full things to do, right? ;-)
I'd love to go to New Sealand too, but hey, I only got 3 weeks to spend on my holiday (*jealous*)... well. At least this vacation is permanent now (as in, nothing will probably stop me from going) which is more than I can say from any other planned (and cancelled) vacation I ever had (outside Holland). Sounds sad.. but hey, it IS sad! But I'm finally changing that now! I will probably book the ticket (for which I already have an option at the agency) tomorrow after work. Reminder to myself: bring along a copy of my passport for the visum they told me I needed (which Nicky contradicted, but well)... ;-)
Wow... less than 18 days to go and counting.. and I still have soooo much things to do! Only two weekends to buy things and fix things, and so little evenings to think about all other thinks that I can't even stárt to think about right now. Well, thats part of it all, i guess. Have to live with it. ;-)
Nicky! I wish for you to have a lot of nice days more to come (and for me too) !!!
Greetings, from one of the smallest countries on earth, to one of the largest countries on earth...
