I had SO much fun! We went on Queen's Birthday and so the price was more affordable then non-holidays ($25, I think, compared to $65). With the entry fee we got to watch the penguin encounter (penguin feeding and talk), experience an antarctic storm (complete with frigid temperatures and wind gusts), view a 4D movie of Antarctica's scenery and wildlife and travel in the super cool all terrain amphibious Hagglund (think of a Duck Tour going up and around short steep hills).
I mentioned penguins... here they are!
Okay, so maybe the picture leaves a bit to be desired. How about a little video of some of the little blues?
I enjoyed all the interactive aspects of the center. I even left my mark here:
What is the one thing you would take with you to Antarctica? Emerson's Pilsner.
So, the whole experience got me thinking... New Zealand isn't that far from Antarctica, right?
