We intend on making the most of this trip for ourselves and for you at home. We can achieve this through technology.

Through the use of digital photography and an internet connection, we intend to upload daily images to the map section of the site. We will take you through Fiordland and the Southern Alps of the south island, to Wellington, New Zealand's capital, the art deco architecture and vineyards of Napier and Hawke's Bay, and to our destination in the metropolis of Auckland, the City of Sails on the north island.

We are bringing you daily photos and journal entries. We will take time to answer e-mail questions and comments throughout the ride. This site will be maintained as a live, interactive journal of our ride across New Zealand.

Click on the dog to send your emails to Mike, John, or ProjectNZ.org. She will retrieve the mail for us.
