Well what can we say, we have been home for a week and what a year we've had! Spent 2 months in Asia, 6 in Oz, 2 in New Zealand, 1 week in Fiji and 6 weeks in the US.

Hello there everyone. We are now in not-as-warm-as-oz Auckland, New Zealand. We arrived last night and have just spent today exploring most of the city. its certainly not as warm as oz, a mere 12 degrees today, and the wardrobe is certainly going to have to have a rethink. i suppose its a bit like going to bermuda for a summer holiday and coming back to glasgow with your flip flops, speedo trunks on and a light t-shirt and wondering why your bloody freezing ...
