We'll already be in Sydney, but we'll need some help getting across the Tasman Sea.

When we're not camping, we'll be looking for accommodations - including hotels in the big New Zealand cities and the small towns on the coast.

Hot springs in Rotorua! Glowworm caves in Waitomo! Or a drive out to Cape Reinga, where the Tasman Sea meets the Pacific Ocean, to sand board in the dunes and walk on the beach! New Zealand seems to have endless activities to feed our adventurous spirit, and we're looking forward to enjoying many of them together.

One time Julia went to Chile and stayed at the W hotel. She met Seal. But even better, she slept in a W bed with a W duvet.

A trusty set of wheels will help us get around the lower island, from place to place.

We love plants and are actively trying to turn our home into a green house. :)

Alex already has one of these and loves it. So does Julia. That's why she needs one of her own, so Alex can use his bag for once.

We've slugged it out in the past with nothing but a ground tarp. Help us up our camping game and get a good night's rest in the wild!
