Moving to New Zealand from Montana

Air New Zealand - now our favorite airline...!

United Air line was lame and charged us an extra $600 for our bikes, but Air New Zealand did not- they want folks to bring gear. We sure did - all our backpacking, rock-climbing and mountain bike gear!
Needless to say, we didn't bring much clothes...that was the hardest thing to for pack for a year.

The kids did awesome after all the flights....

 

 

 

 

 

Poor kids, Alex slept 16 hours straight after no sleeping on the plane...!)

Imigration went fairly smooth...except for our tents, shoes, bikes and other gear were taken from us to check. Being an Island, they are super careful about any noxious weeds

                                                              

Dunedin, New Zealand Arrival!

Brrrrrr! It was cold in Dunedin! We had to scramble and open our luggage for coats, hats and gloves!
