Life flows in a pattern of lazy days here with Patricia and Peter...I don't seem to do much and it's perfect weather for sitting out on the deck in the sunshine ( Factor 30 is out again as well as my shorts and sun hat!!!) and reading . Now and then I feel guilty and Patricia very nicely organises me to do something ... a walk to the beach Long Bay Regional Park- - yes..then we go back to the bea... Read Full Entry

Not long now!!
I'm going to miss these blogs when you are home next week, perhaps you could continue with them to let me know what you are getting up to at home although washing, ironing, cooking and cleaning won't sound quite the same will it?? Looking forward to seeing you although Chris won't be quite so happy cos he will have to find alternative parking for his car, having use of your driveway has been great for him!!! Will be waiting for you next Wed, got the flight number but do you know which terminal? Much love, as always and safe journey home xxx

Last days eh?
Hi L, Another lovely ( almost ) daily entry, what a great way to tell all and sundry about your adventure. I just must do mine this way next time with a blog. How easy is it to upload photos as they make such a difference.Are you travelling with your own computer? And do you just the camera disc into the comp. and go from there.Your expertise makes me feel like such a dunce!! I do know fejoas, Geoff had a bush in the garden in Canberra, cant say theyare any where near the top of a list of favourites! Waves here are huge too at the moment, I have been tumbled a few times lately and i never go out beyond where i can stand up anymore. Not as strong a swimmer as i was! We are trying without success to get a swap in Wales or ireland for October in order to extend our time in Europe by another monther this year. We have Sept in Copenhagen as swap and have decided to go to Germany for all of August with a train pass ( 10 journeys) and just use hotels/hostels etc as we have a return hospitality from a lady who stayed here 18 months ago with her teenage daughter for a few days ( Heidelburg).A lovely, and very clever, lady... a professor of foreign languages at the Heid. Uni. We have sent off maybe 80 requests without a single 'maybe' even!Tis getting pretty close now with only 4 months till we leave for Germany. We have never NOT been organised this close to a trip to europe! I have in my diary that you return to Uk on 3rd April with a few days in Singapore and home by 6th. That first nite in your own bed will be bliss!. Stay in touch as will we. Fondest S ( and G of course)

wonderful
So glad you kept going, Lynne. New Zealand deserved you as you're clearly such an interested and appreciative traveller and we all needed to get our fix of blogs and gorgeous photos. Love those artefacts at the museum. Enjoy your last few days over there and then get back here for the spring flowers! Sue x
