The best vacation I've ever had. Crystal and I drove nearly the entire country, well over 4600 kilometers.
The only damper on the trip was the rain. It was nonstop for our first three days. Luckily we were able to "drive to the sun" as we headed towards the south island.
Queenstown was our southernmost destination. The town was a mountain biker's dream city, with a bike taxi service offering shuttle runs for super cheap.
The Huka Falls were intense! Our rapids jet was along the same body of water, the Waikato River.
