We arrived at Vudu at 4:50 and waited outside until 5:30. The shop closed at 5 for Good Friday. Hope you all have a nice holiday!
Thank you for the insightful comment, Ajbenn. I have emailed the account listed on the Vudu site and hope to have an answer soon RE: their business hours. If anyone local is able to give them a call, surely that would be faster than waiting in the queue for an email response. As for the location, I put the address in the hint and hope that that is enough when coupled with the coordinates :]. We are quite excited to come out for to NZ for the very first time!
Hi, wandercat and ajbenn live in Cromwell, a one hour darive away. We are interested but there is a couple of things that may need checking on. March 25 is Good Friday. Check opening times as Good Friday is the same as Chirstmas Day in NZ. You may get lucky because Queenstown has special arrangements re opening on public holidays. There are two Vudu Cafes. Suggest you make sure everyone is following coordinates.
Thanks for the tip, Markacher! I'll try to send something out as close to the event date as possible. Too bad you won't be joining!
Great idea ... I did the same thing when I visited earlier in February and had a couple from Arrowtown come visit. I recommend that you send out a reminder a day or two before the event to remind folks who responded. I would likely have had a better turnout if I had done that. Have fun in NZ.
