Week 1

---

Hi everyone,

Week 1 has been great, really busy and loving not being at home although missing everyone! We spent 8 days in San Francisco, did the usual tourist things like Alcatraz, Coit Tower, Golden Gate Bridge and Park, went on the cable cars and got a ferry to Sausalito. Also did some extras thanks to Lisa and Juan, and George like wine tasting in Marin County and getting drunk in a local bar! (home from home!)

We had a really long journey to New Zealand yesterday, were on the go for 40+ hours to get here, spent the 1st night in a hostel after a few beers in a Mauri bar last night. Leaving to pick our camper van up in a mo, can't wait to get out on the road and in the countryside! Not sure how we'll cope for 4 weeks in what is basically a transit with a mattress in the back!..... Watch this space! :-)

We will update again when we have more time!
