>Jeeez, Marin, you actually found something in ol NZ that you liked while you
were down in our country......
That was about the only thing, though. No, wait, the maritime museum in Auckland
was terrific.
>I am saddened that it was tarnished with the moronic idiotic youths you met
tho....
It was no worse than most of the other places we've been.
>Guess now you'll never come back .... what a tragedy!!
I doubt it. We've got some filming assignments in Australia
over the next couple of years, and from everyone I've talked to
who's been there, that's the really cool place to visit. New Zealand
wasn't any different than being here in the northwest. You take fourteen
hours worth of airplane rides to end up in the same kind of place you left.
Everyone on my crew thought Auckland was no different from Seattle, only
about 30 years back in time (which, given the current condition of Seattle
is a really good thing for you). We drove all over the north island, and it
was just like the Pacific Northwest only with tree ferns and sheep. Nice,
but nothing new.
