He still hasn't come to visit my island and looks like he may never, I would head out of town if he came to Wellington anyway to avoid the crowds

I voted for Charles instead of Joffrey

Back in 2002, wasn't it, that the Queen visited NZ? I guess age came into it,  not easy to travel that far at that age.

You have a gorgeous island (two islands) as you know I've visited NZ and indeed Wellington. Charles hasn't been King long, I'm sure he'll pay you a visit.

But yes, that's what we did. We drove to a picturesque bay and did a cliff walk, instead. We encountered quite a few elderly people on the cliffs, some probably tourists and some locals. Lots of steps, clifs and hills, here. Good excercise.

Yes been that long since the Queen visited, he is about to go to Australia but won't come to NZ due to his health so he is keeping that Aus trip short, understandable. He may or may not in the future because yea he is not as healthy as his mother was
