SWMBO & I are planning a trip to NZ sometime next year and in an attempt
to balance out her choice of scenic locations to visit, I'd welcome
suggestions of 'must see' locations for an engineer/scientist/woodbutcher
like myself and like most readers of this NG.


Suggestions please (polite or at least humourous naturally!)

Weblinks to events too would be good. visit is possible next November or
just maybe sooner - next February.


We went last year, fantastic country particularly South Island. Milford
sound was the highlight for me and the road tunnel on route a feat of
engineering.

The mount St. John University Observatory is a worthwhile diversion if you
are in that area.
