I cant believe this, it's getting beyond a joke now, we were told to expect temps in the region of 20 - 24 degrees C and with 3 x days before departure it looks like Finland or something !
Jen...If your reading this you had better get your witchery to work on the weather otherwise we are going to be in for a difficult time. It's not the cold I'm bothered about but the possibility of ice on untreated roads that could prove disastrous !
Hi Rog - we are praying over here to! Fortunately we are starting out of the North Island which gives the South Island a week or so to warm up! Fingers crossed! Ali
