Feliz Navidad!!!!

---

Wow this year has gone quick!! so quick in fact, I haven't had enough time to save up the money to fly home for Christmas, so I'm flying to Holland tomorrow instead. I'm on a mission to find all my mums cousins and Uncles and Aunties that live there, so it should be cool to spend Christmas with them, and hopefully learn a bit of freaky deaky dutch. and fingers crossed for a white Chistmas!! Paul Dawson is coming for a while too which will be great, so we'll probably have a good look around then rage it in Amsterdam for New Years eve before he flies out. After that who knows, I told my boss I'll be back in a month, and I've got some snowboarding lined up down in the Pyrenees with a few of the boys but apart from that I'm just going to let the wind blow me around. So this might be it untill next year some time, so enjoy this selection of photos from over the last couple of months and have a very MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! I love you and miss you all - russ xxoo

So I ran out of Time to finish this before I left but I'm now in Holland and loving it! I missed my flight to Holland but they put me on the next plane free of charge so no worries, my family here is really cool, and the food is great, weather has been fine, they've got the coolest bikes ever, Uncle Wim brews his own Liquers, woman are tall here, I'm on holiday, I just got to talk to all of my family for Christmas, they sent me a "bro-town" DVD and some Chocolate fish to keep me happy, I am happy, I'm drinking milk straight from the cow, life is great! Dutch photos coming soon guys - russ

hmmm...i quite clearly remember a whole lotta cheating by team race car going on, and some very raised voices which scared anna and I into just agreeing that u won, or else i think we wouldve got the beats. anyway, the challenge is on buddy...team dog vs team race car on a gameboard when u get back to nz. winner takes all, and ive been practising!
