ahhh ok, just saw the LOTR reference, so I assumed you went on one of those NZ LOTR tours... My mate did one of the more intense tours, where they take you hiking through the wilderness over 3 days...

Only national park I've been to in the states was Yosemite park and that was when I was like 12... :P

man that would be pretty cool. had no idea they had lotr tours.

I went outside. It was snowing and hailing and 22 degrees.

I just need to somehow convince my wife to want to visit NZ as much as I do ;)

She hates caving and cold weather, which makes things boring, since I love doing the adventure tours.

wow that looks like a sweet mtn range with some good elevation
