Not so jealous now!!!!! Oh my goodness. Not sure about those waves!!! Glad I wasn't there. Hope you had my wrist bands on. The dolphins must have been spectacular. Love the bourganvillia. Miss you heaps.
NIce good to see it is all going well "OLD MAN" The kids are missing you and NANA but not long to we will be in NZ.
Keep up the blogs and we will speak soon
PS the website for the rugby is www.coolsport.tv/ (remember the times they display on the schedule are UK times so add 2 hours)
Liquid refreshments! I hope you enjoyed your refreshments. Glad to know you are getting such good weather, hopefully not too windy for future sailing. Still crappy here. Sun a rarity!
Great Swimming Pat gave me your blog so I can now follow your trip. Sunny day yesterday but sitting in peasoup this morning! Pam came yesterday to see me, feel better today. Can Bruce send emails through this site? Enjoy the trip. Sue
Miss You Gosh reading this makes me wish even more I was back there. Have been a t work two and a half days and it feels like two and a half months. The holiday is a distant memory. When I have retired I will have time to reflect. Ha Ha...whenever that might be. Love Ya.
Great fun You look happy and from your blog you are really enjoying yourself, way to go !!we are in our second week of sale and this morning we had the staff sale which was great. My treatment is going well and I am still working full time.Take care and enjoy the journey, Joan
Fantastic to see all is well have been wondering how you are going what an experience.Pip you are right in your element you so love solitude watch out for sharks!!Love to the family in Norway.
ki ora Sounds idyllic - so jealous - how I would love to be swimming there as it is so cold here although last night coming home noticed getting lighter at nights as has been in mornings. Glad you got there OK, you would be much fitter after all the cycling etc. in your time off. Are you sure you don't want to come back to help in the Sale! Anyway take care and continue the amazing journey.
What a life!! Well I'm very impressed with you blogging Rod!!
Glad you are so obviously enjoying yourself. Let me know if you get anywhere near England - oh that's right - we/re not on the Med !! :)
Life's a bitch So here am I sitting by a fire, a screaming southerly, about 3 degrees wondering why the f*** I'm still working my arse off and not on the boat with you guys! I heard that it was even too hot to do a decent day's work. Yes, you guessed it. I'm incredibly jealous! I trust you get launched without any dramas and set sail OK. The only good news from NZ is that there is plenty of snow, so should be a good ski season. I'm looking forward to a trip with the boys to Treble Cone. A far cry from Croatia, the Greek Isles and Turkey!!
Its a hard life when you are retired!!!! Great to see this tonight. Must say you are getting very professional...... Must be the teacher.
Enjoy yourselves as the girls will be there soon to moderate things!!!!!
Glad you are safe! Good to see you got there safe and sound without any drama. Good to hear also that you have been in touch with mum...she was getting a bit hasty! :o)
Have fun and try and stay cool - bet you wish you could dip your toes in the freezing waters of the Tongariro now!
Wow!!!! Golly gosh. The pool looks amazing---- the boat small but cute. This is going to be an amazing adventure. Cant wait to join you guys. It looks as though you are not going hungry!!
Enjoy yourselves. Luv Ya xxxxxxxx
Hi Pops! We can't wait for mamma and daddy to tell us all about your trip! You are very brave :) And we can't wait to see you again!
Big hugs from Lilly and Stella
In 2012 I retired after 43 years in retail and am now living the dream of following the sun. For some years I have travelled to Norway to visit our son and his family and now I am retired and have more time at my disposal I can include other adventures. In 2012 I had a fantastic experience sailing from Croatia, through the Greek Islands to Turkey. In the coming years I hope to continue seeing more of the world. ... full info
