Jason: Right. Some of you already know because of various texts, but we are thinking that we may come back a little earlier than planned. Now this in no way has anything to do with lack of money or homesickness or medical conditions OR trouble with any local law enforcements. We are simply arriving in Christchurch several days earlier than planned, and having completed most activities that we set out to do, there isn't much left to fill our time. We will be spending 6 days in Christchurch and i think you will agree that after a couple of days we will be going a little stir crazy just hanging around waiting for the day our flight leaves. So as a compromise we have decided to get in contact with air new zealand and request an earlier flight (we are aiming for wednesday/thursday next week) That said, nothing is guaranteed, it all rests on what the airline say. So we will have to see.
Elliott: Just briefly, I know you're all now thinking "why spend six days waiting? go somewhere else!". But we need to be in Christchurch the latest Thursday 14th as we've got to give the Merc back on Friday. Which leaves us still with four days in Christchurch waiting. And the two days aren't enough to do anything other then just drive to a city and then head back to Christchurch. Trust us, we've been map and time watching since we arrived in the South.
Jason:We are still doing things up til then anyway, for instance, we are going on a lord of the rings tour this afternoon and then tomorrow we are driving to Dunedin to spend a day there before heading up to Christchurch. We aren't cutting anythin out its we've moved quicker than expected and done things quicker too. And Deena, i know you are worried we are going to regret leaving early but like Elliott said, we will be sitting around most of the time waiting. Trust us, we are ending it on a high note, we don't want to ruin it by having a crappy end to a great 3 and a half weeks here.
On that note we are going to get back to it, phone the airline and such. Please don't worry i know you are still going to think we will regret it or that we have run out of money, but basically you're wrong. Will keep you all informed of any changes. Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Elliott: See ya laters people, cheers for not questionning the decision mum, knew you'd understand our reasoning :D
