New Zealand

We were trying to set up our trip last night, and here's what we're
thinking about doing:

- Queen Charlotte Trail at Marlborough Sound (in Picton?)
- Either Franz Josef or Fox Glacier (day hike)
- kayaking at Doubtful Sound in Fiordland

We don't have enough time there, so I picked the places that looked
the most beautiful (it all was, really) from various websites.

Can you think of anything else that we absolutely must see in NZ? (we
would have to skip one or more of the above!).

Any advice you have for our trip would be greatly appreciated

From the look of it, you have chosen wild beauty as a theme for your
trip and I could not think of anything better to add, unless it would be
to squeeze in a few sights as you move between airport and wilderness.

As you say, it's all good, and you can hardly fail to be disappointed,
unless maybe it rains steadily.

How do you plan to get around? There may be opportunities to see
Queenstown, Haast Pass and Arthurs Pass, all great scenic locations.

But just about anywhere in the South Island is good. The scenery leans
in the window and says hello.
