All the activities were well-planned and they were well balanced with our free time. Accommodations and meals were excellent. The only regret is that the Night Sky tour was canceled due to weather but Marta found alternative activities for us to do. I really enjoyed the walking trails and saw the spectacular Mt. The spa was a real treat. I enjoyed the good times with the other women.

Amazing and diverse experiences in a land of contrasts. Beautiful country, memorable trip. I just loved New Zealand! All the places were magnificent- Mt. Looking back on everything, I was truly blessed because it was wonderful trip and it shall be etched in my memories forever. It has been a week since I have been home and I still have the joyful exuberance if a great vacation in my head.

Usually everyday life pushes the vacation memories to the back of the memory bank but not this time. When I go on a tour, I want experiences, not lots of shopping time, and we were busy on the tour most of the time seeing NZ. The hotels were all very good and the food at the restaurants was first class and I appreciated that. I personally felt that everything on the tour was a first class choice. I recall when we were on the way to the Ruakuri Cave, our bus driver made a comment that we were going past the cave with a lot of buses to a better and more private tour up the road.

Staying at the hotel in Mt. Cook National Park with a cloudless Mt. Cook out our bedroom window was a pinch me moment. Again, I was appreciating the upscale choice of the rooms we had; I know a room with a view costs more. Finally Ms Fisherova moved from Clyde, leaving money owed on a rental property, as well as leaving Mr Murray several thousand dollars out of pocket, he said. Mr Murray said he had not laid an official complaint because he had absorbed the losses, but he was concerned other people might be more vulnerable.

She knew her as Hana Demeterova and believes Fisherova is a pseudonym. They began as friends, and over the years Ms Alpert would make donations for Russian and Armenian children to receive cochlear hearing implants, she said. Ms Alpert created a charity and found sponsors, as well as donating her own money towards the surgeries. Ms Alpert she was being persecuted in the Czech Republic and was applying for political asylum. Ms Alpert began making payments directly to an account owned byMs Fisherova, but now she believes she has been a victim of Fisherova. She denied there was any money outstanding on the Happy Hills project, and disputed the amounts Mr Murray had invoiced.

She said she paid for all the expenses for the project including rent, food and travel. Her visa was due to expire next month. The South Today News Bulletin. The warrants could not authorize seizure of irrelevant material, and are therefore invalid. Declaring the search warrants to be invalid was a significant victory for Dotcom because he was struggling to pay his mounting legal bills. He was also allowed to sell nine of his cars. In May , a district court judge ruled that the FBI should hand over all its evidence against Dotcom relating to the extradition bid.

The Crown appealed, but the ruling was upheld by the High Court. The Crown appealed again and in March , the Court of Appeal quashed the previous court decisions. Crown lawyer John Pike, on behalf of the US Government, argued that the district court had no power to make disclosure decisions in an extradition case and that "disclosure was extensive and could involve billions of emails".

The Court of Appeal agreed stating that extradition hearings were not trials and the full protections and procedures for criminal trials did not apply. In May , the Supreme Court agreed to hear the case, so it will make the final decision on whether Dotcom should receive all the FBI investigation files before the extradition hearing. A series of subsequent court decisions delayed every attempt to hold a hearing focused on extradition.

In November , Dotcom and his former wife Mona accepted a confidential settlement from the police over the raid. The settlement came after a damages claim was filed with the High Court over the "unreasonable" use of force when the anti-terrorism Special Tactics Group raided his mansion in January Settlements have already been reached between police and Bram van der Kolk and Mathias Ortmann who were also arrested. The New Zealand Herald reported that their settlements were six-figure sums and "it is likely Dotcom would seek more as the main target in the raid". Commenting on the settlement, Dotcom said: "We were shocked at the uncharacteristic handling of my arrest for a non-violent Internet copyright infringement charge brought by the United States, which is not even a crime in New Zealand".

Chief Justice Sian Elias dissented, saying there had been a miscarriage of justice as the search warrant was too broad.

When the US tried to have his bail revoked, a new lawyer, Ron Mansfield, helped keep him out of prison. In making this decision, Judge Tallentire said, "No one can say when that process of extradition will be completed given the appeal paths open to the various accused.

Indeed, no one can say if it will ever be completed". Dotcom argued that Key had been involved in a plan to allow him into New Zealand so that he could then be extradited to the US to face copyright charges.

Key had consistently said he had never heard of Dotcom until the day before the New Zealand police raid on his mansion in Coatesville. On 24 September , Mr Key revealed that, at the request of the police, the New Zealand Government Communications Security Bureau GCSB had spied on Dotcom, illegally helping police to locate him and monitor his communications in the weeks prior to the raid on his house. Three days later, the Prime Minister John Key apologized for the illegal spying.

I apologize to New Zealanders because every New Zealander… is entitled to be protected from the law when it comes to the GCSB, and we failed to provide that appropriate protection for him. This opened the door for Dotcom to sue for damages — against the spy agency and the police.

The mistakes by authorities attracted widespread media coverage and Key's handling of the affair was criticised by opposition parties in Parliament. Political commentator Bryce Edwards said the GCSB's involvement and the botched search warrants "turned the pursuit of Dotcom and the operations of our law-enforcement agencies into the stuff of farce".

A Waikato Times editorial said that the announcement of the illegal spying "heightened suspicions that this country's relationship with the United States has become one of servility rather than friendship. It is preposterous to suggest Mr Dotcom threatens our national security.

The Government's unquestioning readiness to co-operate with American authorities seriously corrodes our claims to be an independent state. In September , Dotcom revealed he aspired to enter New Zealand politics. The deal was brokered to serve the Mana Party financially, with the combined structure's political campaign in the general election being primarily funded by Dotcom. In contrast, the fledgling Internet Party was to benefit from the possibility of seats in parliament in the event that the combined structure were to achieve a greater percentage of the country's vote, helped along by the Mana Party's existing seat.

On 16 September , Dotcom held an event in the Auckland Town Hall five days before the election in which he promised to provide 'absolute proof' that Prime Minister John Key knew about him long before he was arrested. In the general election , the joint Internet Party and Mana Movement gained 1. The media criticised Dotcom for 'failing to deliver' at the Moment of Truth after saying for three years that he could prove John Key had lied in relation to his copyright case.

Dotcom said in January he had become such 'a pariah' in New Zealand that he might as well leave the country. The party remained leaderless until 8 February , when Suzie Dawson was appointed as its new leader for the general election. The Mana connection was dropped and the party contended as the single entity the Internet Party.

The Internet Party was deregistered on 12 June because its membership had dropped below the required for registration. After three years' legal wrangling, involving two supreme court cases and 10 separate delays in the proceedings, extradition proceedings finally got underway in an Auckland court on 21 September The wrangling continued at the hearing with Dotcom and his colleagues saying that they were unable to present a proper defence because the US had threatened to seize any funds they try to spend on international experts in Internet copyright issues.

He said there were no legal grounds to extradite Dotcom and the allegations and evidence made public by the US Department of Justice "do not meet the requirements necessary to support a prima facie case that would be recognised by United States federal law". Once the hearing finally got under way, Crown prosecutor Christine Gordon, on behalf of the US Government, called it a "simple scheme of fraud".

The Crown also made numerous references to intercepted Skype conversations between Dotcom and his co-defendants.
