hi again, love the family blog & photos. Yes, recognise the painting of River Dart. Lovely to see and skype with the family, they sure looked after you guys (the real South Sea Island style) they loved having you both and so glad you felt at home. Sure doing a lot of eating and as for the rum and coke, wow, you doing well Kate!!! I could imagine most of the places you mentioned and lovely to see all the children-sll growing away up too quickly. Love the one of \'silly faces\' When I was last at Bea & John\'s place they had just planted all those trees and shrubs in their massive yard. Am so pleased that you managed to meet up with the Aussie relatives on Pa\'s side of the family. Don\'t relax, there\'s more to come in NZ and of course in Fiji & USA. Your newsy blog made us feel so happy to know that you are both enjoying yourselves, a welcome break from hostels alright. It\'s already 3months since you left UK-half way!! Skype from Jason\'s if poss. Thinking of you always-keep safe. love yous!!!
