Advantages: Beautiful and relaxing Disadvantages: the sun will burn you to crisp if you're not careful
...Back in January when bf and I were booking our trip to New Zealand he thought it would be a good idea for us to make a short trip to Fiji. This was mainly because we were staying with our friends that were getting married for a couple of weeks before their wedding and he thought they might appreciate not having to drag us around constantly. Admittedly, we could have gone somewhere else in New Zealand but he had his heart set on Fiji, so Fiji it was (as he was paying…)
As a tourist, the choice of where to go is enormous - the Fiji islands are an archipelago of 333 different sized islands situated in the South Pacific. After much deliberation we decided to go to Mana island which is located in the Mamanuca island group 32 km west of Nadi airport.
A couple of days before we were due to leave I looked at the weather report for Mana...

Advantages: Well planned for families Disadvantages: On a hill so be fit
...Set on a hill overlooking Wellington's suburbs is an ideal home for a wide range of animals, birds, fish and even the shy, flightless kiwi, the nation's treasured, nocturnal bird.
There's an obvious focus on providing a natural environment for the animals with plenty of trees and other relevant features which the animals would enjoy in the wild.
While the `residents' are presented in the best condition for public enjoyment and education you can see that staff and management concentrate hugely on animal welfare and stimulation.
I've read some of the enterprising breeding programmes which go on at Wellington Zoo and this augurs well for some of the species which need a little help from man.
I've taken my children and grandchildren to Wellington Zoo and over the years it has improved hugely. They've all loved the little...

Advantages: Great place for all! Disadvantages: Windy is the name!
...When you ask people what the capital of New Zealand is, they’ll probably say Auckland.
Yes… Wellington is the capital of New Zealand.
You can feast yourself by visiting the ‘Beehive’, (Government buildings), and even listen in to the local politicians.
It’s not as extravagant as the House of Lords, however- it’s still a ‘debate’, even if you can’t join in!
From Wellington you can catch the ferry to Picton, there’s three ships that sail and it doesn’t take very long to get across. Dolphins normally accompany you if it isn’t too windy.
When I say windy, wellington has been given the name ‘Windy Wellington’ by the locals, because it's always windy!
One of the most famous peices of history for Wellington is the sinking of the Wahine ship...

If you've played the SNES version called "Secret of Mana" then you will know what this game is like. This is an action RPG so no turn based combat to worry about. The story line is reasonably interesting but nothing special. The visuals are great and... more
As Billy Connolly, the "Big Yin" says - The Scottish National Dress is - The Wellie!
The humble "wellie" is one of the most under rated bits of kit you will ever wear. These ones are safety boots, and normally when foot protection is required in... more
