Getting Ready to Go

Hi all,
This will be our travel blog for when we are overseas. We'll update it as often as we can so you can see what we're up to without having to get massive emails from us.
We're really looking forward to going - only 3 weeks and 4 days left!
In case you're interested we leave from CHCH airport on Tuesday 29 July at 8.40pm, and we arrive back in CHCH airport on Saturday 6 December at 1.35pm. We're flying Air NZ, via Auckland, via Hong Kong to London Heathrow.

Off we go
We've got the packs, I've practised tramping (only once, but hey I did it and survived to tell the story!) - we're ready to go!

Lucy
Only one request for when we go - no walking before we get back home!!!

Matching tramping clothes!!
He he - you and Dan have matching tramping t-shirts! Also, which date do you come back? The blog says 6th July ... don't think that's quite right ...
