Not long now, youll have to cram everything else into TWO weeks now, its gone really quick. I think i would have been going up and coming down the glaciers on my bottom. Take care, See you soon xxxxx

Ann HI Claire Great to read the blog & see all photos, I've given up waiting for Laura's ! ( think she is too busy partying!) How brave were you skydiving - what an achievement - good on you. Kiwi land sounds amazing, you have had some amazing experiences. You'll all need at least a month to trecover when you come home, can't believe it's under 3 weeks till your return, it's gone so fast. My family have spanned 4 conintents this week! Take care Ann x

mum Hi Claire. Have you thought any more about the bungee jumping. Hope you have changed you mind, although i cant see you jumping from a piece of elastic, even if they paid you to do it. Weather today is very cold and its going frosty. Hope your weather has bucked up a bit. Take care, speak to you soon, when you arrive at your next destination. Love mum xxx
