When it comes to the tour groups, that comment isn't racist, its culturist. For some reason many of the aisian tour groups are downright rude, and Din is correct when he says that its better that they are mainly on the busses.

Absolutely awesome pictures. You two had so much fun and saw so much beauty. Thank you for sharing.
Did you get a call about the R1? Alan really wants it!!!! Posted to sunnies up too so you should get those either today or Monday.
I'll be up your way later this year so I'll give you a call and come meet the rest of the Pelenda family.

and sorry to say....but Auckland is full of asians.....I'd never seen so many. If you lived in Nelson you'd be hit by the Granny's.
