The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I'd love if I could agree with Jim´s "NZ.....you can pretty much choose any climate you like, depending on the town you pick. Napier is a lot like Spain, its precise antipodes. Christchurch is a bit closer to the San Francisco end of the scale.", but I can't. There is a reason why NZ is so green: Much more and often rain

Bear in mind there are subtleties to my comment: the average temp in San Francisco in summer is about 57 F, if I recall : )
If you want good weather (but few other attractions), go to Quito. Spring every morning all year, summer every afternoon.

Jim
