Hell yeah!!! - I want to see if that special "area" is greener than it's surrounding areas!

On a serious note, I am very keen

Stupid family want to go to Japan, so I guess I miss out again. Will get there one year.

Stash $500 from the Fairmont sale. That would almost cover the trip.

A long weekend in March/April is good for me. See when the cheap Bris -> Launceston flights come up I guess.

I'm not too bothered about visiting anywhere else but Barny.

The other idea was this ...

Fly Friday Morning to NZ. Hire a car and drive to Taupo (about 3 hours).

Sat - Play 18 Holes at Kinloch and 18 at Waireki International
Sun - Play 18 Holes at Kinloch - Drive to Auckland and fly home.

Waireki is nothing special. Kinloch looks good though. $225 for 2 games at Kinloch or $175 for one. Anything else around there? I've played a few on the east coast / bay of plenty. Nice courses, but nothing 'spectacular'.

EDIT: Cape Kidnappers is another 2 hours down the road from Taupo, but it's $385 a round!

A few of us up here may be interested as well.

THE DRUMMOND GUY UP HERE RECKONS HE KNOWS GUYS WHO CHARTER A PLANE FROM MELBOURNE SOMEWHERE TO GET TO LAUNCESTON AND IT WORTKS OUT CHEAPER THAT PAYING LOTS OF INDIVIDUAL AIRFARES.

APPARENTLY IT IS CHEAPER AND QUICKER.

If you do the charter you could pop into KI on the way down. Should be in serious construction mode by then...and of course play the ripper 9 holer.

Had though of that too ... When will KI be ready .. would be great to have an Ozgolf contingent down there for the opening.

Collis - you should get it on this. It was great fun last time.

When March comes around I'm going to be very disappointed being stuck this far north, too early into a new job to be taking holidays.
