  Speaker 2: Sam, Hi, thanks for listening to our Breakfast Bonus podcast.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: Today we're talking about summer, but not just any summer,
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: the perfect summer. What does that plan look like to you?
• 0:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we need to talk about what you do with
• 0:15
  Speaker 3: your precious leave and how you break it up and
• 0:18
  Speaker 3: whether it involves the beach, does it involve going back
• 0:21
  Speaker 3: to perhaps where you grew up or in some cases
• 0:24
  Speaker 3: people go overseas And Sam, you did this And I
• 0:27
  Speaker 3: don't understand personally, because I feel like New Zealand is
• 0:30
  Speaker 3: at its best between sort of December too, probably March,
• 0:34
  Speaker 3: and I just wouldn't go away in that time.
• 0:36
  Speaker 4: I don't know what was your thinking.
• 0:38
  Speaker 5: Then let me explain. We went to Fiji because we
• 0:41
  Speaker 5: got free accommodation.
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: Well, well that explains it. That's a good reason.
• 0:49
  Speaker 6: But no, I do agree though, this is New Zealand
• 0:51
  Speaker 6: at its best. And I wow people who decide to
• 0:55
  Speaker 6: go for a white Christmas. I know it's beautiful, but
• 0:58
  Speaker 6: you know you're stuck inside. Get to go outside and
• 1:00
  Speaker 6: make a snow man. That's about it. The rest of
• 1:02
  Speaker 6: the time time you're in cold weather summer in New
• 1:05
  Speaker 6: Zealand is an absolute gift.
• 1:07
  Speaker 4: May want to try a white Christmas, though, wouldn't you.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: If you want to try it? If you want to
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: try it one time? But I'm one of those kids
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: who I kind of grew up being around the beach
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: in the US. I'd rather feel the feeling of sand
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: between my toes than the snow.
• 1:19
  Speaker 5: Do you know what I mean?
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: If we went to a white risis, we'd been putting
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: our beer feet on snow through.
• 1:26
  Speaker 6: Your gloves and I don't know the way you said
• 1:29
  Speaker 6: to know, like you made it sound like a dirty
• 1:31
  Speaker 6: words snow look.
• 1:36
  Speaker 2: But no, no, I don't want to hang out on it.
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: I think the perfect summer though you mentioned a couple
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: of things there before Tony getting back to your hometown.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: I always try and do that at least once or
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: twice a summer. But the beach for me, my sister
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: does it really well.
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: Though.
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: What she does is she'll work across the feest of
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: season because everyone else is away, easy to get car parks,
• 1:52
  Speaker 2: no one's in the office, who's car on? Do your thing?
• 1:54
  Speaker 5: Knock off early, but.
• 1:56
  Speaker 4: Then she's basically not working. No one is really Then.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: Then you take your leave kind of like late January
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: when everyone else is back to work and now you're
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: on holiday and there's.
• 2:04
  Speaker 3: Nowhere around, but having no one around, I reckon, that sucks,
• 2:08
  Speaker 3: Like don't you want people around to give you that
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: feast of vibe? I like a summer on my own
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: sounds present.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: She goes with her family and stuff. Obviously everything then,
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: like everyone else's back works, So the beaches aren't. The
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: holiday hotspots an't as busy anymore.
• 2:21
  Speaker 6: I get the things take the holiday hot spots a
• 2:23
  Speaker 6: little bit later than you know, having to pay ten
• 2:26
  Speaker 6: thousand dollars for a batch.
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: That's exactly what even some camping grounds is, know, you guys.
• 2:31
  Speaker 5: You can't even get into a camping ground.
• 2:32
  Speaker 2: That's right. But later in January there they start free
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: up a little bit and there's lest people around there.
• 2:36
  Speaker 5: Man, if you notice camping grounds, they've changed.
• 2:38
  Speaker 6: I mean, there's some wonderful examples, but they have become
• 2:42
  Speaker 6: a lucrative business.
• 2:44
  Speaker 5: The infrastructure and the existing campgrounds are unbelievable.
• 2:47
  Speaker 6: Now there's pools and there's jumping castles, and there's hydrous
• 2:50
  Speaker 6: slide in his And that is because they are such
• 2:53
  Speaker 6: a limited thing. Now they've all but the real estate
• 2:55
  Speaker 6: on a lot of the campgrounds are sold, so the
• 2:58
  Speaker 6: ones that have survived are lucra and they're pouring resource
• 3:01
  Speaker 6: into it. But what that means they're expensive and they're
• 3:03
  Speaker 6: impossible to get into.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: You're so right.
• 3:06
  Speaker 3: I love how you talked about hotspots and avoiding, you know,
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: peak times. I feel like I'm ramming myself into possibly
• 3:13
  Speaker 3: the peakest of all. I'm going to Fungminda on New
• 3:16
  Speaker 3: Year's this year.
• 3:17
  Speaker 4: Oh what am I doing?
• 3:20
  Speaker 5: Voka Cruises?
• 3:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but do you know what? So we're going after Christmas, right,
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: a couple of days after.
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: Every year I.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: Consider this and then I never do it, but I
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: consider is it like, would you have Christmas away from
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: your house and go and you know, rent to Airbnb
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: or a batch somewhere where you actually took Christmas on
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: the road or is that just a logistical name?
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: I made him way did this last year. So him
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: and his wife and their kids went to Kinlock, just
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: out of Topol. And so they were there and his
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: sister and their kids were there, and his wife's family
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: were there as well, and they all got this big
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: place in Kinlock and they had Christmas there. Everyone just
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: brought the presents that if the tree they didn't put
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: a tree up as such.
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: Oh see sounds good, but no logistical And I feel
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: like that would all on the person that buys the presence,
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: and you've got to wrap them way ahead of time.
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: There's no mad wrapping on Christmas Eve for that family
• 4:07
  Speaker 3: in the car.
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: You're missing the obvious advantage of this location. Christmas means
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: you can avoid the relatives that you don't want to
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: see at Christmas time.
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: No one's dropping in.
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah you know what I mean, that's coming with you, Sam,
• 4:21
  Speaker 4: and you make it it.
• 4:22
  Speaker 5: You just make it too hard for them. This year
• 4:24
  Speaker 5: we're doing it in Nepal.
• 4:27
  Speaker 4: You know, won't last for that.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: One's got a combination of things, a lot of gathering.
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: For me, I'm quite social that a few gatherings, a
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: lot of barbecue. Most most meals on the barbecue, and
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: hopefully some warm, fine weather with no wind. A couple
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: of years ago, in a beautiful fine summer, but it
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: was windy and even at the beach, all the seam
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: was blowing around. It was annoying.
• 4:49
  Speaker 6: Yeah, well that is let's talk about weather, because let
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: me explain exactly.
• 4:54
  Speaker 5: What happens when we get centralized high pressure, which is
• 4:56
  Speaker 5: exactly what we want.
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: Think of a wheel place direct New Zealand worth the
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: center point, the hub being Wellington.
• 5:04
  Speaker 5: So the center of the high pressure is going to
• 5:06
  Speaker 5: get the stillest weather. And you know we can't say
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: that about Wellington a lot. But what that means is
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: the rotation of.
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: The system is going to be because it's a high
• 5:14
  Speaker 6: pressure anti cyclonic, so it's going to be anti clockwise,
• 5:17
  Speaker 6: which means over the top of the country and the bottots,
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: the top of the country is going to get the
• 5:21
  Speaker 6: northeast and the bottom of the country is going to
• 5:23
  Speaker 6: get a.
• 5:23
  Speaker 5: Swing south west or westerly.
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: And you know that is the implications of a perfectly
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: placed high pressure.
• 5:29
  Speaker 5: So the vast majority.
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: Of us will have beautiful weather, but you do have
• 5:32
  Speaker 6: that rotation around the outside of the system which is
• 5:35
  Speaker 6: very nigly for those particular places.
• 5:38
  Speaker 5: Was that interesting?
• 5:39
  Speaker 4: I hate rotations in my summer.
• 5:42
  Speaker 6: Well, well, then you have to selfishly ask for this
• 5:45
  Speaker 6: of the high pressure to be more placed higher over
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: the country.
• 5:48
  Speaker 5: So if the center of the high pressure is.
• 5:50
  Speaker 6: More kind of through the Waikatu or Auckland, then yes,
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: we will be fantastic, But then it will mean the
• 5:57
  Speaker 6: South Island is getting all the debrisms are kind of
• 6:00
  Speaker 6: pushing over the world in the South.
• 6:02
  Speaker 4: But whoever's been nicest stand to will deliver forward and we.
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: Get a bigger wheel.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Can we get a biger wheel to rotate?
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: And that happens? Okay, it happens.
• 6:08
  Speaker 6: The biggest of the high pressures, you know those because
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: we were Jim Hockey always told me that a big
• 6:13
  Speaker 6: summer high pressure and remember summer high pressures read lower
• 6:16
  Speaker 6: sits around ten twenty five, one twenty five Hector pascals,
• 6:20
  Speaker 6: some of the biggest systems we've ever had up around
• 6:22
  Speaker 6: ten thirty five will cover the entire country.
• 6:25
  Speaker 5: And we're all, we're all, we're all gravy.
• 6:29
  Speaker 4: Yeah, bring us, bring us the wheel, Bring us the wheel.
• 6:32
