Actually wrong again!  (Sorry!)  Pacific to the North, East and South,
but the Tasman Sea to the West.

:-)  It's just that NZ is not a continent.  Australia is.  Technically,
NZ is described as comprising of three main islands and a number of
smaller ones.

Not overwhelmed at all.  I've visited Vancouver, Houston, LA and Denver
(well, the airports of the last two) and flown LA to London.  I have an
appreciation of the size involved.

As in many other places in the world.  Some of the best scenery I have
seen was in and around Vancouver and I long to cruise up the west coast
from there one day.

MB> But you truly are a long plane ride away from me.

About 12 hours to LA direct.
