Scott, you will not do your holiday justice if you do not go to the South Island.
Go to Christchurch (don't talk to anyone there as they are a strange one eyed breed) Go across Arthurs Pass to Greymouth, down the West Coast through Franz Joesph and Fox Glacier to Haast (must stop at the Curly Tree for a whitebait fritter), Wanaka, Queenstown, Te Anau, Milford Sound, consider Dunedin then up through the Caitlins back to Queenstown, Tekapo, bypass Christchurch, and up to Kaikoura and Nelson/Blenhiem.
Now I have spent your money, anything else I can help you with?
