preparations and vacation in NZ

the renting company of the camper was that nice to book the ferry Wellington to Picton for mid Feb for me. I've read that in the high season, the ferry is often well booked out. 4 months ahead seems to be a good time to book it though. Other topic: My parents are now doing a computercourse at the "VHS" gdgd... Hope they (well, seems that it would be me doing it) will receive their internet connection before i leave.. maybe i can set it up over xmas...
