For his birthday present Ray is being given two tickets to NZ (and back!)
from my son and his wife. We'll probably go in January of next year, even
though his birthday is next month.
I've never been there but Ray went to NZ about 15 or so years ago but by now
there must be other, or more highly developed, gardens. Has anyone got any
particular recommendations? We won't be seeing gardens only but obviously,
those will be a major attraction for us! We intend to drive ourselves, as
and where the whim takes us but I want to start planning with the aid of
online maps, some of which show specific driving tours. I want, also, to
get him some books appropriate to the gardens of NZ, so again, any
suggestions will be most welcome.
