Hottest place in NZ yesterday - over 33 degrees.

Not that I am gloating, understand, just observing.

When we were there in late November 2002 the weather was so bad that we
were sitting in the hot pool with hailstones falling on us!

Exactly the same with us last year (wind & rain but no hailstones). In
fact the whole of South Island was pretty miserable for the 5 weeks we
spent on it. I doubt if Mt. Cook actually exists ... we looked at where
it was supposed to be from every angle. Cloud and drizzle at knee level.
I guess we'll have to try again :-))
