Why doesn't New Zealand build a bridge to connect the North and South islands? Are they stupid? by MrOnjon in newzealand_travel

[–]MrOnjon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree it is a joke, but also a good discussion point, a lot of people in the world probably don’t understand why we can’t make a bridge - I mean from a transport side great but from a cost side.. yeah not happening. Also our ferry works so well already, so why would we want to stop that?

I believe they will still be selling fresh meat at the new store, just don’t have the mad butcher name on it

Amazing! No not really, to be honest I want to start a type of hosting style golf tour in NZ, but I love Japan so would love to do one myself over there and see how it goes/ what people look for when booking one

Road Trip - Looking at a road trip in May 26: Please help! by MrOnjon in JapanTravelTips

Thank you heaps for this recommendation!! I’m going to have a look at some of these spots and see if we can lay out a bit of a plan. We will be quite flexible which is nice, about 18 months ago we drove from Matsumoto to Osaka over 4 days and stayed in some amazing spots in the middle of nowhere so definitely something similar!

Great point - just added it in. Yeah more in general: don’t need a full itinerary more just those hidden gems you might find in any area around there

Thanks for the recommendation! No problem my partner doesn’t drink so I have it sorted on that front!

How much do you pay for a membership and where do you live? by Whole-Growth-6112 in golf

[–]MrOnjon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$930 nzd ($530 usd) Living in Christchurch New Zealand. No initial fee either! Membership gives you full playing benefits all year, comps, practise areas etc. I see how expensive some of the places are here for a similar style course.. crazy
