New Zealand

Hi Shane
just to let you know we have arrived safely in New Zealand after a very long flight we did not sleep on the way here so we have missed a nights sleep, Tom picked us up from the airport so it was nice to see someone we knew, the bad thing is the weather is quite cold here my tan is going to fade, it is like autumn here, cloudy, quite windy bit different to Asia we are waiting to pick up our campervan then we plan our route, there is going to be so much to see here so we will need to be quite selective in what we do?
We are in fleeces and long trousers here it is very English here lots of English street names etc we are in Christchurch quite a big city, very mountainous though we will go to the southern alps and fjord land I think? Micks happier it is cooler he would be happy in the North Pole he does not like hot climates but I do???????
It will be 7.30pm back at home I will call you half way through the trip if not sooner take care, love you,miss you, lots of love Mum Mick xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
