Hey all! I'm going in early August, 07. Haven't decided exactly when but it will probably be the one starting in Queenstown on the 1st.

What do you know about the weather at that time of year???

Hey again,

I had a look and I am pretty sure we meet up on day 3 or there abouts. Not to sure if I will head home on the 9th or the 10th. What time is your flight on the 9th? I am staying in Christchurch and to celebrate my birthday on Saturday night and then heading back to melbourne.
Email me or add me to your myspace if you have one jessicaalisa@hotmail.com mite be easier to chat. Where bouts in Melbourne you from?

Hey everyone,

First off, before I say anything, just want to make it clear, I'm not going on your trip.

However, I've gone on this tour would be more than happy to share my experiences and share any advice or tips you'd like.

Keep in mind though, I went in October 2000, so the tour has changed somewhat.
