Here we go again. As neither of us had been much further south than Christchurch/Queenstown, and the fact that we had some friends we hadn't seen on our last visit to New Zealand, we decided that a trip to the South Island was called for. The fact that it just 'happened' (a fluke, pure coincidence, honest!) to coincide with the Warbirds over Wanaka airshow had nothing to do with the timing. :-)
For those of you who were after the airshow and other aviation and motoring related topics, you should go back a page to the Overseas Home page (see below)
