Travel Review: Tour of Australia & New Zealand, Queenstown, Sydney, Auckland, Napier, Wellington, Abel Tasman National Park

In Australia, we were in just two cities, Melbourne and Sydney. Memorable in Melbourne: staying in a great hotel along the river, walking to the National Gallery of Victoria (a great museum), seeing Roger Federer play in Rod Laver Arena and spending a day on the Great Ocean Road with an incredible guide, Ricarda. Memorable in Sydney: staying in a great hotel with a view of the Opera House, the Opera House tour (a must) and a performance in the Joan Sutherland Theater, walking in the Botanical Gardens. Memorable in New Zealand: everything! From starting in Aukland and finding a fantastic restaurant and ending with a cruise on Milford Sound and flying back to Queenstown, every day was interesting. New Zealand is a beautiful country. Lake Wai-o-tapi's thermal wonders, the Zealandia Sanctuary at Night (seeing kiwis), Napier, Wellington and its great museum, the ferry ride from the North Island to the South Island, Mt. Cook and a cruise to see the Tasman Glacier, a wonderful tour of a farm and a lunch there featuring all foods grown on the farm, Abel Tasman National Park, too many highlights to name them all.
