Fiordland Advocate - Te Anau What If...

Posted 13th February 2014 to the Fiordland Advocate Te Anau



I like your Devil’s Advocate Speculation about 1960s Tomarrow-land Monorail Projects getting the Go Ahead.
I wouldn’t get too excited as Queenstown has thrown up a lot of grandiose projects that got a green light
But have fallen over before they got of the Proverbial wayside.

But If one could go back in time and Write a “What if” Scenario
There is a lot of stuff we just would never see coming. What if Fontera never formed, what if Roger Douglas wasn’t Born, What is Auckland was only a Provincial City.
Life in New Zealand would be a whole lot different today.

As for Fiordland... What if the Cave Creek Disaster Never Happened to the Department of Conservation.
And What if the Milford Road was Never Sealed. What if the Christchurch Earthquake didn’t scare all those Rich Tourists on to Cruise Ships... That would be like Science Fiction because everything would now be unrecognisable to us!

There is one “What if” I asked Bob Robertson the First Time he showed up with his Monorail... What if... you used the Kingston Flyer instead Bob?
 Bob could go green and recycle !
