Now, the weather in the north is extreme cool.
One of the early snow was spotted in Vienna sometime in late Oct 2012.
Why not consider going to the south?
Instead of following tour, again, why not rough it out?
You'll go to some extremely ULU ULU place but you might be handsomely rewarded too.
Consider Catlins of South Island of New Zealand:
1) Nugget point.
You might not believed it, the wind blow directly on you from the south pole without any blockage. The photo shows a light house at the top of a cliff....
Then, the pointed tips/islands, slopping gentle down towards the ............................ south pole.
Beautiful, isn't it?
I bet less than a handful of anyone visited NZ know or visit this place.

2) Curio Bay.
This is a amazing place and the picture does not shows the power of this place.
We will need to be 100% concentrate and use all our imagination to fully understand the danger.
Imagine that you're standing on a cliff about 100m high.
Looking into the horizon, you can see the divide line separating the sea from the sky...
You have the full frontage, no blockage and the wind is blowing onto your face...
... cool, fresh and nice.
Glancing down the cliff slowly, there is a huge black tabletop.
Black piece of rocks, like a giant table spread nicely below.
Its so huge. It must be at least 10 x 10 km wide.
Mmmm. No, it's not a rocks, there are some patterns on the surface....
looks like coconut trunks...
criss crossing one another.... so many of them lying there.
Why are these coconut trunks so dark? like coal or charcoal?
Wait a minutes, there are some one walking on the tabletop.
Yes, two person here and one over there.
It's hard to spot them because they are so far away.
They are so tiny and they looks like ants.
Nice stroll. These people really know how to enjoy... the breeze, etc and also can take a closer look of the coconut trunks...
Wait a minutes, the sea level is so close to the tabletop.
We can see the wave coming in and splashing on the fringe of the tabletop (at far end).
Wait!
The tidal wave must have changed, the wave is coming in.
These guys must quickly run towards the cliff (us) so that they can climb up to higher ground.
But, the tabletop is so vast, and they will definitely need time to run here.
In the first place, did they know the danger?
Are they aware of the tidal wave had change?
It's going to be high tide soon.
Why are they still wondering around?
