Hello everyone,

As marc said a quick entry back into your virtual world of marc and claire. At the moment for me this consists of not working very much, my new boss is.......well actually i cannot put the words on here to describe her, she's shook me out of my very comfortable nest of money earning thats for sure. After two months of having it easy working away i'm now back on the hunt for a job, as is the entire backpacker population of southern new zealand it seems. The spare time was a novalty at first though and doing all those thing you do when you have too much free time.....walking up big hills and baking seem to be the previlant activities! And having cheeseboard picnics in the park with old friends from Paihia.

More recently me and marc rekindled the joy of the old times with a marc and claire big day out to the amazing, the fantastical, the...quite frankly rather limited......chinese settlement at Arrowtown. As marc said though we had much fun running around like the kids that we are. Was great to have a break from Queenstown and get back on the road if only for an afternoon. Having quashed a rather whimsicle decision to leave queenstown early....was tempted to 'do a jeff' and get back on the road earlier than planned after a night out on the town. hmmm having a belly full of tequilla and two hours of sleep for the night never does set up a reasonable decision making process i find. So am sticking here until the winter fest then making my way to welly with marc for a few weeks of domestic life it seems! Enjoy the photos, love claire
