The adventure has started.
We have arrived safely in Queenstown NZ.
Flights were good, very very tired and Norm's luggage is still in L.A.
However
We will manage.
Had a great adventure to Milford Sound. Stunning scenery. Mountains and more mountains.
Interesting roads. narrow, no shoulders and very twisty.
Weather is fine - coolish sort of this morning - plus 12. Not cool for Canadians.
No snow except on the mountain tops.
saw a Kea - NZ Green parrots - very friendly and wild.
Saw fur seals.
Had an unbelievable flight back from Milford Sound - tiny plane, between and over and around the mountains. Kinda bumpy.
I survived.
Pictures hopefully up later tonight or tomorrow.
Hopefully Norm's suitcase will arrive before we leave Queenstown.
The adventure continues.
I miss Canadian Hot chocolate. Here it is melted chocolate in hot water. Just not the same.
Driving is weird. Love the weather though.
take care all.
Hugs
Heather

Hello
Great to hear you have arrived safely. Unfortunately that Norm's suitcase did not but oh well. I am sure it will show up. The temperature sounds great. It is supposed to get cold again tonight and be about -10 for the rest of the week. I cannot wait to see pictures. Post lots! (Heard from Linda. She is in Vietnam.) Safe travels, Steph
