Adventures in New Zealand?

We recently watched a doco which featured New Zealand as THE destination for adventure seekers, with bungy-jumping, zorbing, jetboating, skydiving and more. Ironically enough, rather than being an adventure destination, it's more than likely that New Zealand was the SOURCE of what is about to be our greatest adventure so far; our Auckland-conceived baby! Although I must say that Zorbie wasn't necessarily conceived in NZ (could've been Thornbury lah) but it is a distinct possibility.
What else is intriguing is that the one adventurous activity on our itinerary (a few days after Auckland) was the Tongariro Crossing, which we didn't end up doing. Why? Because Babes woke up very early that morning feeling nauseous. Probably a bit early for morning sickness, but it could've been God's way of telling us not to do the full-day walk and risk hurting a freshly-conceived Zorbie...
