Map of New Zealand

Dunedin, NZ is approximately 10,000 miles from Southwest Harbor and is 16 hours ahead of the eastern time zone.  This is the start of their winter with highs in the 40s along the coast.  We are heading into the mountains at the beginning of the trip where I expect we will encounter snow and temps in the 20s.

I expect warmer temps as we travel north.  We will be touring the North Island on the last half of the trip and departing from Auckland.

I am packing a winter coat, a rain coat and lots of fleece.  Louise suggests wearing layers as the weather can change quickly in New Zealand.  Sounds familiar to Maine!
