Where's Bruce? Hi Diane,
What an experience! So good to keep up with your adventures!
When and where are you meeting up with Bruce again?
We are all doing well. We're in FL right now. Bill is leaving tomorrow. Margaret and I on Fri. It has been bitter at home so it's a bit nicet here.
Love to you,
MB

Happy New Year! Thanks again for including us in your NZ adventures - we're having "heaps" of fun just reading about it!
Rita and I remember our Milford Sound Cruise as one of the highlights of our trip to NZ (heaps of memories).
By the way, did you ever go fishing? Have you any "fish" tales to tell us about?
We heard there was another slight earthquake (3.5). Hope all is ok with you.
We look forward to your return for more pictures and stories about your adventure. Travel safe.
All our best,
Rock & Rita
HAPPY NEW YEAR! I think I am a little late... I believe it is already 2011 in NZ! Hope you are all having a great New Years! What a great Art exhibit! I need to check that out!
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year Dear Dianne, Bruce, Saskia & Nicole,
On this 6th day of Christmas I'm still sending cards. gifts and email greetings. I can't tell you how much I enjoy your blogs. The descriptions are delightful and the pictures great. Ever thought of writing a tour guide or doing a video for PBS?
I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a New Year filled with grace and blessings.

Another Great Picture Hi guys - this is another great picture! Lucky family to be together and still like each other!!!! Museum pictures were heaps of fun to look at(how 'my doin'?) Anyway, I think there is a steeper hill in Schenectady if I'm not mistaken(Hamilton Hill) - I'm just sayin'.... Love your Christmas tree-MISS YOU!!!
Christchurch to Milford Sound Hi I hope you all had a merry christmas and The best New Year yet. I love reading your blogs Kathy at work sends to me. It looks and sounds like your doing great. Take care Thersa
keep these blogs coming thanks for sharing....glad you are all having such a wonderful time...NZ is so beautiful, and the people so friendly...happy holidays to all. i had an out of country experience last night in queens. went to a russian club with my jewish uzbekistanian barber, and his staff, some of which were family, and had an amazing fun time of eating (so much food), drinking, dancing, and laughing...there were several other groups there, and the other main activity seemed to be taking photos.
Your adventure I'm thoroughly enjoying your trip. I'm also learning new ways to traveling from what you've been reporting to us. Our next vacation will be much more adventurous. Thanks.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

Anyway just wanted to wish your family an American Happy Thanksgiving! Great blog and pictures! I am totally jealous of your adventure... Thanks for the info on the organic farming... that sounds like an interesting option to the Hilton!
Happy Thanksgiving Hi To All,
Hope you're roasting a turkey. Do they have Butterballs there?
We're at my mom's and sister's. Bill and I did the Turkey Trot. It was Bill's first run ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So nice to see Saskia there too! What a place to have a family reunion.
Love to all!

Thanks for the update Bruce. Keep going, I'm having fun living vicariously through your adventure in NZ.
I can't wait to hear about your trip to the South Island so I can relive our trip there in 1997.
Happy Thanksgiving to you all (Bruce, Dianne, Saskia, Nicole, Chris and Eli)
