So probably a little bit of a silly question....but that's never stopped me before. What makes a lodge a lodge?
Last time we were in Wellington we visited Te Papa to see the ANZAC exhibition - think it was pretty recent at that time. Found it very moving and interesting to see a NZ slant on the campaign.I had a day to kill waiting for the conference to end. So I checked out the Muesum of New Zealand - very interesting place. The Gallipoli exhibition is excellent!

For lunch I settled on afternoon tea in the IC club lounge - surprisingly very nice!

For interest. how long did the drive from Queenstown take? It looks like the road hugs the shore of the lake.
It looked a pretty spectacular drive.45 mins. The road follows the lake the whole way - one of best drives I've done.
New Zealand does many things well ... one of them is luxury lodges. I've done trip reports on Huka Lodge and Wharekauhau lodge ..... this year it's Blanket Bay!
