For anyone touring South Island, the seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August. Traffic drives on the left across New Zealand, and hire cars are the usual way to travel on the larger islands. Rugby union is followed closely nationwide, and the national team plays in black. Hāngī, a meal cooked in an earth oven, and the pavlova dessert are both part of New Zealand food culture. Christchurch is one of the nearby places within reach of the campsite.
