Book Details

DO NOT VISIT AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND (UNTIL YOU HAVE READ THIS BOOK)

Australia and New Zealand! Where the wonderful is strange and the strange is wonderful. Considering a vacation to Australia and New Zealand? Perhaps you need to read this book first. Part travelogue, the reader will delight in the itinerary that thousands of tourists follow each year. Part cautionary tale, the reader will discover there is no such thing as a perfect vacation. One Bad Day is a humorous but informative take on the lands Down Under. One Bad Day is highly recommended for the undecided traveller. If you have a significant other who is determined to go to Australia and New Zealand, you will go unless you can make the better argument for not going. One Bad Day provides more than twenty-five excellent reasons cleverly disguised as chapters to avoid a costly trip halfway around the world. Or maybe it won’t. Both countries offer unique natural attractions. One Bad Day makes a strong case to visit them while you can. In Australia, the temptation to cuddle with a koala is hard to resist. In New Zealand on the South Island, you may match wits with the wily kea, a large green parrot. On the North Island you will meet the incomparable kiwi, the national symbol. Encounters with either will change the way you think about birds—and life. Reader discretion is advised. One Bad Day is not suitable for those who are airplane impaired.
