Yeah... it wasn't a great honeymoon, believe it or not.

I'd read an article on the bra fence a few weeks before we went out (2002). When I saw it I had to slam the brakes on and reverse back. Sadly, my wife wouldn't part with a bra for the fence. 

We'd had a miserable few days before then. My wife ended up in hospital when we landed in Christchurch - actually the nursing staff were the only ones who wished us a happy honeymoon the whole time we were there, the hotel staff everywhere else in NZ couldn't give a crap - and then when we did start our holiday our campervan side window exploded for no reason - we were parked up at the Franz Josef glacier campsite and no one else around - showering the sleeping area with glass. We had to pay to sleep in a cabin. We had to give the glacier a miss and drive for hours across the moutains in the driving rain - with no side window! - down to wanaka (the nearest place where they could fix the window) on Friday 13th. Oh happy days! 

We spent a couple of nights in Wanaka in a cabin while they put a bit of perspex to replace the campervan window (and tried to fly to Milford Sound but the weather - glorious in Wanaka - was too bad to fly to Milford)

We saw the bra fence - I think - just before arriving in Wanaka. It cheered us right up

Ah man that sounds like a honeymoon from hell! At least you have a lot to talk about when you look back on it and know that if you can make it through that you can make it through anything! 

Glad the bra fence cheered you both up
