Sojourn to South Island-New Zealand

Ten months after we bought the tickets, we finally left for our 2 weeks holiday to South Island, New Zealand.


Day 01-19th Oct/Wed
KL/Christchurch
Departing @ almost midnite, the uneventful flight was less than 10hours. We have pre-booked on board meals, which was served twice during the journey. For more leg comfort, we had the Hot Seat.



Day 02-20th Oct/Thursday
Christchurch
Arriving just before 3pm local Christchurch time (NZ is 5 hours advanced), immigration was swift. Only had to show our homeward bound tickets and were given 3 months visa.




Collected our rented car, and we were off to our rest for the night.
Btw, no need to apply for international driving licence. Just get an English extract of your local driving licence. Fees = RM10.00/licence. Document validity same as your local licence.

Room at Holiday Park @Meadow Street.

The unit comes with 2 rooms, full kitchen facilities and can sleep upto 6.

Early rest today as we were tired due to no good sleep on the plane and the next day we would head out to Fairlie.

New Zealand is one damn CLEAN & COURTEOUS COUNTRY !
