Well, has this become a FRIENDLY battle of the North vs the South Island of New Zealand ??? I hope not, because the South Island is by far ahead of the North, YET still some nice places are to be found there as well! rgs
I am up for a little bit of banter of North v South. But on a serious note, I am actually a North Islander, I am from the Waikato. But I escaped. I do visit the North Island from time to time, and I did live in Rotorua for a number of years. I know there are a number of very nice places to visit and photograph. I am looking forward to seeing your images. Gary
