CHC Botanic garden info ctr
Salam Denco,
Cantik2 your photos semuanya. Terasa tenang & nyaman. You pegi in May 2012, masa tu autumn kan? time daun2 bertukar warna? Heidi teringin nak ke sana in autumn. Especially kalo duduk tepi lake tengok reflections pokok2 yg colourful tu in the water. Memang rasa tak nak balik. Dah lama NZ dalam my wish list. Baru first time masuk thread ni. Banyak gambar2 menarik & info yg helpful. If you don't mind Heidi nak tanya:
. 1 minggu cukup ke cover both North & South Islands?
. fly airline apa & fly into which city? Roughly berapa harga tiket?
. sewa kereta ke? kena research what is the best means of transportation, kalo takde driver
. berapa roughly total budget for the trip?
. what kind of lodging did you stay in? i'm a budget traveller.
Thanks in advance.
