Well we are at the end of our NZ trip. We were in a town called Kaikoura the other day and went whale watching - it was amazing. We saw a 16 metre long sperm whale called Tono. He was massive and as long as our catamaran. Whales are so beautiful. We tried to find another one with the radar but he swam off when we got there. We saw lots of dusky dolphins, albatros and NZ seals. David felt quite sick when he got off the boat though which did make me laugh!! Our ca...

HI everyone, Well we are on day 10 of our 2 week road trip and drove for about 3.5 hours today to get to Kaikoura. We went for a 2 hour walk along the beach and sea front and are about to get some fish and chips. Along the walk we came across a stream that led to the ocean. I took my shoes and socks off and walked across and David thought he could jump across - how wrong he was! I've just put a video of his attempt on here! I can't stop laughing even now and whe...

Everything suddenly turned very white and had to put sunglasses on because it was so white. At one point we couldn't even see the road but carried on driving instead of sto...

Hi everyone,We've only been here not even a week and we're loving it. Yesterday we drove to Franz Josef where we got a helicopter ride through the glaciers which was amazing and David's 1st time in a helicopter. The glaciers were amazing and we got our on Fox glacier to take photos. We were on the glacier for about 10 minutes. The snow was so deep and told not to go far because of 200m crevaces - agh!! The snow was wicked but you couldn't really see a lot because...

Hi everyone, well we finally hired our campervan yesterday for 2 weeks. It is so good to get on the open road and to stop where you want and sleep rough - it's fab! We have a small campervan with a cool box for a fridge and 3 ring gas stove for a cooker and a table and back seats which turn into a bed which fill the whole of the back it's brilliant! It was quite cold sleeping last night though. We have taken so many photos already as the sights are amazing and i...
