I'd first like to thank Melissa Werner of AnzroPacifica for being a darn great travel agent with all my little date issues. We just spent 20 minutes or so on the phone nailing out the last little details (well, of my flight -- other details forthcoming, so I have to plan those and she'll help me book little trips).
Since I'm going in April (still kind of tourist season), I should get to go kayaking. Yeah!
I'm just unspeakably giddy. I leave Seattle on April 12th, and I arrive back on May 6th. That puts me in NZ for 3 straight weeks of excellent NZ happiness, and I'll be doing both the north and south islands.
Excuse me, I'm going to go squee now, and then I will plan my trip.
