Summer plans!

Midgetbob just totally recycled my joke that noone noticed. What a prick.

To avoid a warning; does anyone have plans to visit NZ (I'll settle for Aus If I like you enough) to escape the Northern Hemisphere sun?

Well not really a Summer plan, though I DO generally go down there in Summer, but I'm planning to visit my Mom and Little brother in Westport. I fly in to Christchurch and then head West.

Which hemisphere summer?

Heading west from Christchurch... so I guess you come during NZ's winter and go skiing in Queenstown, as well as going to Westport? If that's not right, it's a hell of a suggestion, that part of the country is amazing:

Nothing quite that amazing unfortunately. I go down in our (Northern Hemisphere) Summer because Air fare is substantially cheaper then (plus the cooler weather is nice break from the dry heat here in Cali). Last time I was down there (2 years ago) I met my family in Christchurch, went around town, and rode the train West. Still amazing for the view alone. We wanted to do a bunch of scenic driving and go to some of the cool spots by Westport, but Winter is just a bad time to go. So, for something completely different, I'm planning to visit in October so that it's not too cold and we might be able to do some outdoor travelling.
