Right, need to eat some lamb and try some of their delicious red wine. Can we schedule in a trip to the Franz Josef glacier and Mt. Cook?

I think I'm suffering from jetlag

But New Zealand should be a good side to play.

Just you guys watch out over here! Don't get carried away with yourselves. I also recommend trying the White Water Rafting if you've got a match down in Queenstown!

Jeez. Tough call that. Personally, I prefer Fox Glacier to FJ. With Fox, you get to walk through some virgin podocarp forest before emerging on the glacier a decent way up. With FJ, you walk a kilometre along the glacial valley before ascending the terminal face.

Also, visiting FJ and Mount Cook in one day is virtually impossible - unless you visit to Mt Cook is just a fly-by in one of those little single engined Cessnas.

Either way - tough call to get to an ODI at Chch the next day. The press will have a field day if you lose that one

I recommend a nice large burger at FergBurger on the main Queenstown road followed by a good pint of Speight's - The Southern Ale (actually a rather hoppy lager)
