Hi guys! I will start by saying WE ARE ALIVE!! We are so sorry we have been  rubbish/ non-existent with our blog- it has been a mixture of the 3rd world country internet in both NZ and OZ (seriously it's worse than dial up used to be) and us being on the go pretty much non stop! We have been keeping a little book of notes and stories though so we will split it over a few posts for our devoted readers! New Zealand - North Island (Part 1) Auckland We arrived i...
