Caitlin is a Star
Well done Caitlin - you look really beautiful skating on the ice. Lucy learnt to do it over winter at the mall so you guys will have to go skating when you get back. Clever girl. So look forward to the blog updates every day when we wake up - we love them and the photos are great. Well done Mike. THings have come a long way from the days of my travle diary with cellotape at the end of the night. Have noted that you have not left any gaps where you have needed to put the names of places in unlike my diary - that still have some gaps in it to this day!!! GIrls finish school today - Lucy is sad about finishing Primary School but I am sure she will be fine!!! THere will be tears!!!

Brilliant
Hey guys! I am loving the blog - I am getting more up to date information on how you all are when you are away from home than I do when you are in NZ! Sounds like you are having a fantastic time and we are very jealous! Just think as you head to Orlanda we are due to drop in temparature to -7 over the weekend and get another lashing of snow.... white Christmas for us by the looks of things. Still no sign of the puppy - she is still missing in action! Keep having a great time! Karen & Damian

Spitting distance
Yup I know what youre saying Brother "its just spitting distance". Hey sounds like you are finding out that not all Americans are like in the movies or are like the American tourists we get at home. They are very hospitable eh! Sounds like the weather is a bit on the cold side but not for long..Orlando here you come!! Hey this blog is cool and it is so good to hear from you without you having to answer regular emails i bet!! take care and look out for the biog breakfast in Florida!! Take care LOL

Hi guys - the Exploratorium looks fantastic, and it seems like you're all having an amazing time. Just a little worried that Mike seems to have developed a bit of an obsession with both food and the weather, though! Well done on the walking, in spite of all the discouragement - Craig will be really proud of you all! Thanks for keeping us updated - almost as good as being there (not)! - looking forward to reading the next installment. PS. Don't worry too much about the weather - it's beeng rainy and grey here as well.

Treeman is awesome!
Funny! Thanks for the stories, laughs and wonderful photos...I might con Richard into starting the "treeman" on Queen Street. He is the only person I know who could pull it off. Did you finish the breakfast?

Blog Pace
As an experienced blogger: A: I'm soo impressed with the volume and quality of the blogging B: How will you keep up the pace? It's a marathon, not a sprint people :) I wanna keep reading your blogs on day 30! P.S. I know and have seen the tree-man, 30 minutes watching him while enjoying a meal is great entertainment.

Boxes
You could probably flatten them and cellotape them back up when you get home! Easy to pack then :-)
14th December 2010

shoe boxes
Had to laugh out loud about the shoe boxes. Since the kids I have had to leave the shoe boxes in the shop. It would push the chief bag packer over the edge if shoe boxes appeared!! I really do deep down still what those shoe boxes!!

Glad you arrrived there in one piece and that immigration was uneventful! Glad to see that you are hitting the cafes. Really hot here the last couple of days so funny to see you all in jeans etc. Thought of you this morning as we missed our walk - the sleep in was great :-) Cheers, Wilma
