Hello from Melbourne! Well sadly the Melbourne journey has come to an end. We've been living in St Kilda for 3 months now and it's really stared to feel like home. Somehow we all ended up here, Marie and Lee, Clare and Rach and with new friends Tory, James and Chris we've had a great time. We've seen all the sights, we've danced 'til dawn, we've stood with 11,500 women for breast cancer awareness, we've met stars, made good friends, walked hundreds o...

Well, its been a long wait for you all but here at last is our tales from New Zealand.

After picking up our designer lime green Hyundai we began our trip by driving inland through the Blue Mountains National Park, a beautiful scenic route although sadly Lorraine and Amelia struggled to keep theirs eyes open! Stopped for a bit to eat in Singleton and then drove further than planned, bypassing intented Tamworth - the home of Country Music (thankfully!). Spent our first night in Glen Innes and we're lucky enough to absorb some of the local culture o...
