- | 14. | + | The one main problem throughout New Zealand as far as weekend trips are concerned is Transport. Unless you have your awn car or hire it, private trips are virtually out at weekends. This is why the clubs are so popular, and between 20 to 60 may turn up for a weekend trip. Some clubs own their own bus, but most are content to hire buses or trucks for the weekend. They usually don't work out any more expensive than train. The large numbers on club trips may sound horrible, but they work out O.K. and you don't notice it after a while. It makes a lot more work for the leader though. |
