Sooo homesick! What great pictures, I'm a Kiwi in London (for the time being) and am missing home quite a lot! Great to hear other people's perspectives on the Land of the Long White Cloud, being away certainly makes me appreciate it more. Thanks Ken!
Good to see you Ken, good to see you tonight, now your home I finally find your site!!!!
What a wondrous trip for you both and not only geographically.
You have found it, don't let the magic go. I'm so glad to see you happy, fulfilled and enjoying life. Angie.

Many of the places you have visited look surperb and I really need a holiday abroad now. The Grand Canyon looks amazing. Glad you are still having a fab time.

we're home! Hi there
Great to see that you pair are still having a ball - we also had some great sessions in NZ due of course to the rugby! Cape Reinga looked amazing - i miss those gorgeous clear blue sky days - i kidded myself when i was away that the irish weather wasn't really that bad but ..... well we're home now - we've actually been back a month now and time has absolutely flown. At first it was a little overwhelming but we're settling back in a bit now. we said when we were away that when we got home we couldn't imagine wanting to go away again for quite some time but would you believe we have itchy feet already. I think the list of places we would like to visit has actually got longer since travelling for 9 months - that wasn't really the plan! Anyway just to let you know we're still keeping an eye on you. Have a fabulous time in Figi - do you go to South America from there? if so i think we could share a few pearls of wisdom - let us know, take care rax and c
thanks for the updates Hi Ken and Linda, just to say that the photos of NZ have been absolutely uplifting, thanks for the news, cant believe you are 3/4 through the trip. Hope to catch up with you on your return. Jim and Carol.
Still having a Ball!! Hi Guys,
Great to see you are still having a ball......we are too. Have a friend from Melbourne up here again....she was here for Clyde's birthday. Spent a fabuluous day - breakfast at Mooloolaba, swim at Maroochydore and then lunch and snooker at a truly Queensland Pub at Boreen Point, 20 ks north of Noosa. Clyde was driving the BMW so you could imagine how many wrong turns we did - finally got there and had a great day. Take care of each other......Love Meg
Cool Van I so look forward to your Blogs, they make an otherwise dull day at work, fun! Love that van, I want one, that would be just so cool! Great for festivals, having done 5 so far this year, off to Beautiful Days for 4 days next weekend, can't wait. Keep trucking Dudes you look like you're having the time of your lives and so you should.
Have fun Trowbridge Sue X
HI FROM THE SUNSHINE COAST Good to hear from you..........obviously New Zealand is just getting more beautiful every year. I hear it is rather "chilly" there at present, the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia has stunningly beautiful weather at present.......24 degrees - it that winter!!
Take good care of each other and we (Clyde, Chris, June and I) are all still trying to play tennis on a Wednesday night.
Love Meg
Hi Both what a phenomenal time you llok to be having the travel logue really brings your adventures alive! take care hope to see you on your return r and t
Perfect Hey Up Ken, Hi Linda,
A couple of pints of Addlestones were raised for absent friends at yon Cambridge Folk Festival on Sunday. There was a bloomin'marvellous start to the proceedings with a stonking set by the astounding Rodrigo y Gabriela which included a salsaed up version of Stairway to Heaven. Ken - judging by the images of Mount Cook etc you'd have appreciated the delightful Eddi Reader dedicating a version of Perfect that she needed to get out of her system to the demise of Top of the Pops.
I've thoroughly enjoyed following you around - keep it coming.
