NZAE Chch -> Dunedin roadtrip?

By Peterofl. 08/05/11, 10:31 am

Yay! Just did my budgeting and set aside petrol money, accommodation money, and ticket money. Now I need to start saving for spending money. Very Happy

Will Lennon and I have to take a bus instead?

By Mandie_Chan. 08/05/11, 11:31 am

@Blossom No, you guys confirmed already and so we've got seats for you guys to come back to chch. It might be a bit of a squeeze but we'll all get home. :)

I think my sister just posted under my account o.O
~~I really don't remember posting that~~

So my car load~
How long does it take to drive down? 5 Hours?
For my car I'm keen to leave and be on the road by 1.30pm~
Also is everyone able to come to my house? I can't drive Alena without Anne, and if Anne's here, then Peter you may as well be dropped off here?

THOUGHTS?

Sounds good to me.

(and yes, that was me posting on your account because you were logged in on my laptop Razz

)

By Mandie_Chan. 09/05/11, 09:10 am

Good.
So.... how long DOES it take to drive to Dunners?

By **Riven_**. 09/05/11, 10:35 am

I'd book on 6 hours. We'll be stopping and swapping drivers and doing other fun things on the way.

By Lumissne. 09/05/11, 10:50 am

Just a quick question, are all the cars leaving at the same time? Or will it depend on who's driving?

By **Riven_**. 09/05/11, 11:26 am

It'll depend on who's driving. :) If we can go down together, that could be fun but it depends on schedules and things.

By Willuknight. 09/05/11, 11:36 am

Even if we left at the same time we would probably get separated on the road or whenever. Probably easier not trying to coordinate - especially as there is no need.

@Anne: When I signed up for this I forgot that I'm going down to Dunedin a week early to stay with a friend for while so take me off the list please Anne. sweatdrop

I have my flights already booked. Razz

By Highlander. 22/05/11, 02:53 pm

O.K. I have booked accomodation, I will put in for leave tomorrow.

I have a comfy car, fits five.

But like Anne, I take it some people want to go down after lunch? But you are talking about doing stuff on the way down and taking 6 hours. With it getting dark sometime after 5pm, if I do that I would leave in the morning. I fact I would be keen to do it faster. And then if we left in the morning spend time at the Chinese gardens doing photoshoots!

I am flexiable whatever, am, pm, fast or slow, as long as I'm arriving before dark.

By ObitoAvenger. 23/05/11, 12:20 am

Don't need a ride with u guys any more! my uncles driving me lol

By **Riven_**. 23/05/11, 02:07 am

Cool. Thanks for letting us know!

By Mandie_Chan. 23/05/11, 04:19 am

Hey Anne on the first post can you put the details of leaving for my car?
-gather at mine 1.15pm
-Leaving mine at 1.30pm LATEST (unless we can meet and leave earlier? I don't know when peter is finishing for the day)
-please insure you've already had lunch and are bringing some snacks for money handy for a shop~

~~car arrangements will be determined by if and when I'm driving and require Anne in the front seat~~

um.... so where is Peter and Alena staying in Dunedin? I presume we shall have to drop them off if they aren't staying with us~

By sakuramiyabi. 23/05/11, 07:39 am

im staying with lucy~ so is shinrii

By ObitoAvenger. 24/05/11, 02:42 am

@Riven- No prob can't wait to see u there <3

By Rolly. 24/05/11, 08:23 am

I should mention that I can't make it to NZAE any more, so I can't carpool! Razz

By Highlander. 24/05/11, 10:31 am

So I make it:

Mandie (car)
Riven_
Peter
Kagerouhi
}This carload is meeting at Mandie_chan's place (PM for address) around 1.15 with the intention of leaving at 1.30 at the latest. Have lunch first but bring snacks! Yeah!

Will (car)+3
Lumissne

Highlander (car)

On the way back;
Lennon
Meghan

So Will either I should go in your car, or we can take mine.

This leaves one spare seat in each car. So on the way back we can rearrange seats to fit Lennon/Meghan in one of the cars.

By **Riven_**. 24/05/11, 10:49 am

... Will's car is full, Highlander.

It turns out Will's taking three people instead of two like I though and Lumissne, and I've already talked to Lennon and Meghan so they're going to bus back instead.

By Mandie_Chan. 25/05/11, 03:17 am

Also My car is now possibly full too~ I have a friend who is thinking for spending the weekend in Dunners for a holiday.

Works even better now because we can bring her home! I didn't know Lennon and Megan were bussing~
