Greetings from Christchurch! We spent a few days here getting caught up on the blog, finances, and travel planning, and now we head out to Mt. Cook and points further south and west on the south island. We're working our way over to Queenstown, where we will probably plan for a 3-4 day hike and maybe some adventure sports. We'll also hit Milford Sound for some sea kayaking. We'll post pics from Christchurch soon, and we'll catch up on our time in NZ. We love it...
