Feeling poetic?
Hey you two, Which one of you wrote the blog? I love the imagery, very nice. So of course, here are my questions. 1) Did the springs smell? Chel said that Rotarua smelt sulphury, so was it like that or not. 2) Alpacas or llamas? 3) Really best place visited? 4) Where next? You looked so cold in one of the photos but still had your sunnies on! Glad you are having fun. May not be able to visit this year afterall cos we have to pay for our visas aswell and we might be moving house cos this one isn't very child friendly and doesn't have a good back garden. Still undecided but might be 2011 and we might be bringing 2 babies with us! Hopefully. Much love and kisses Em, Ian, Charlie Pants, and Mia
